    Only issue I’ve noticed so far is an issue I had to fix when I was working on my own app: sorting comments by hot breaks some nested comments. Yours, for example, is showing as if it is a reply to another comment, but the only thing above you is the root comment and three below yours.

    Lemmy’s API doesn’t properly sort comment trees when sorting by hot: you have to sort them yourself. It’s pretty straightforward, though. It gives you the path to the comment as “comment1.comment2.comment3” you just have to sort the replies by the path string

      Yeah, I’ve seen at least one broken comment tree on Sync, it confused the hell out of me

        I’ve seen tons. It’s the one big bug that’s been annoying me a lot. It’s super frustrating to want to read a thread and then have all the comments jumbled. I’m sure it’ll get fixed relatively quickly, though.
