i see ... even without using reply on another page?

or maybe it's really if two people use reply on another page at the same time?

lol, I think I got a slight taste of the @k00b experience

I just looked at my phone and there are too many notifications

I might need to restart it to clear all of them, lol :)

So it comes up at the bottom of the thread ‘reply on another page’… so I click that and enter this comment.

I just tried the same but it worked for me

And when I look back at the main thread it shows your comment (not mine) and says; ‘reply on another page’

reply

not sure I understand. To which comment did you try to reply?

And what do you mean with

it shows your comment (not mine)

Thanks for the detailed description! So it basically worked for me but not for you for some reason.

Are you running this through a mobile device or computer based with a mobile emulator? As this could be a mobile issue rather than computer.

Good point, but it happened to me using a computer. The backend also shouldn't care what device you're using. Since this seems to be a backend bug.

edit (sorry, lol): maybe it's because we both were trying to reply to the same comment using reply on another page

And I commented first and you commented after me

Can't confirm now since I'm on my way to somewhere but maybe that's indeed how to reproduce it :)

I'll send you some extra sats in that case

You are welcome. One team - one dream.

That's the spirit! But I would write it the other way around, lol: One dream - one team :)

I was only wondering as the replies to posts get very compressed to the right hand side of my screen around 9/10 comments in. I only use SN on a mobile.

Yeah, noticed the same. You'd have to click on the timestamp of a comment to make it the root to fix that.

Not sure if there's a better way

reply

this is getting out of hand, lol

we already have 67% of the comments from yesterday

and it's only been 31 minutes, lol

if we keep this pace, there will be 3456 comments until the next daily discussion

reply

Really? Though it might be more. And I don’t even comment that much.

let's blame @orthwyrm because of this comment, lol

edit: or maybe bot blame @orthwyrm

depending on the amount of top level cowboy comments, the snail has to check a lot of comments to find the fastest cowboy, lol

edit 2: ah no, it can just sort by recent, lol

reply

Can we stop the editing. Making me look like even more of a muppet!

reply

sorry, had to edit my comment again because there was a typo :)

reply

That was more than a typo edit…. Lol

reply

i mean after you replied i edited my comment again

i only changed "mahbe" to "maybe", I swear :)

deleted by author

I don’t think that’s the issue - because no one would comment past the first post would they? It’s just fun to spend time with similarly minded people

reply

i don't understand what you mean, my mind is already spinning, lol

reply

Did I say similarly? I must have meant simple minded…

…(just joking)

@carlosfandango replied on a new page….

This is where all the trouble started as I recall….

reply

wait, so you can consistently reproduce it since it happens every time do you? lol

reply

So i think there are two issues here; not placing comments in the right section of the posts and it’s producing new pages when comments are ‘full’ (usually around 10 replies in)

reply

Hang on a minute. The link I clicked that came up in my notifications had brought me here (the new page).

I feel like Dr Who walked into a festival toilet thinking it was his tardis and it’s brought him back to where he went in.

why can you and @carlosfandango consistently trigger the bug but not me? lol

I just divided 62 comments by 23 minutes and 23 minutes by 62 comments

4 if those are all the same 2 eggs

6 if we take the present tense seriously

reply

You're first answer is correct. You have 4 eggs left after you ate the 2 eggs.

I also noticed the amount of comments in the thread need to be even for a reverse thread.

So it must be like this:

A > B > A > B

not A > B > A > B > A

And this thread is already broken, since I replied twice to a comment of yours, lol

edit: wait ... I am dumb.

A > B > A > B > A

would work but not

A > B > A > B

since you can mirror the above but not the bottom one. Or B has to write what A has written
