Hey everyone.

Does anyone else have the same issue with the comments not being displayed properly? For lots of comments it shows the “view parent” link which just links to the main post again. It’s impossible to see the actual parent comment.

      Mine is set to “Top”. Funny enough had to switch to different app to even see the comments here on my post. On Sync it says there are no comments even though I got notifications in Sync about replies.

      But I already use sorting by Top and it doesn’t work. It doesn’t matter which sorting I usw. They all are broken.

    Does the missing comment show up in the Lemmy web UI?

    I think this just happens when a comment gets deleted. Sync can show the child comments, but the Lemmy UI just hides the entire thread.

      I just checked web portal and only had undetermined selected. Now added English and it started working. So I guess Lemmy bugs out if someone posts a comment marked as English but you haven’t included english in your own list.

      Seems like weird behavior to implement.

    Yes. I tend to think that my instance isn’t catching up, since the comment is there when I visit the post on its home instance. But that’s just an uninformed guess.

    I’m seeing this too, it’s hard to tell if it’s a Sync issue or defederated instances (Beehaw users?)

      I’m having some comment related issues as well where comments don’t show up in the threads when I click on them via my inbox. Not sure if that’s related.
