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.

I've also seen comments switch indentation places

This happens to me when comment sort is set to Top. Try changing it to Hot.

[–] Waldhuette@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

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.

Bug with Lemmy itself in v0,18.3, can be fixed with a wonky hack.

Until then, just use Hot sort instead of Top.

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

on a sidenote: are you able to submit posts from the app? Mine says "Coming soon"

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.

yep I'm having the same issue, it's like the comment tree got interveted

[–] Meseta@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 year ago (2 children)

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

[–] victorz@lemmy.world 1 points 5 months ago

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.

[–] bleistift2@feddit.de 1 points 1 year ago

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.
