This is a [**dynamic block**](https://developer.wordpress.org/block-editor/getting-started/fundamentals/static-dynamic-rendering/). It is rendered on the server and does not save HTML in post content.

In post content, it is stored as a block comment:

```html
<!-- wp:latest-comments {"displayAvatar":true,"displayExcerpt":true,"displayTimestamp":true} /-->
```
