After the update, I cannot see replies to comments. If I am logged out and view the post, all comments show. But when I log in I can see that there are replies to someone’s comment but instead of showing the comments, I just see “2 replies.” If I click to expand the comment chain, nothing happens. It’s weird that everything looks normal if I’m logged out, but not when logged in.

Edit: I am also having a similar problem with the comments on this post. When logged in, no comments show, despite the comment icon showing that there are comments. I cannot even see my replies to other comments. I can see my comment reply to this post. If I log out, everything shows fine.

Edit2: I can see older comments on posts from a month ago. I don’t know if this is a new comments issue, or something else. Unfortunately, I don’t know anything about how lemmy works under the hood.

This might come quite late but thankfully will be helpful for others.

I just had the same issue on my instance, I solved this by selecting Undefined in addition to English in settings > languages

I’m not sure but it seems like unselected languages from that list are filtered out. I’d rather prefer to see everything so maybe the best thing would be to just select them all but I’m not sure

A whole community just for this? Well this is bad (the fact that it is even needed)

That was the problem. I didn’t even know there was a language setting until last month, when someone else commented about the same problem. Hopefully, anyone searching in this community will see your comment. Thanks for the reply.

Have you gone into your settings and verified that you’re not blocking any accounts? There could have been an error in the database on the upgrade that inserted blocks. This is pure speculation but easy to check on your end.

It’s not an account blocking issue. I cannot even see the comments on this post, including my own. I can only see your comment in my inbox. If I go to this post it does not show any comments, even my own replies.

It is possible that I am a ghost. It’s also equally possible that you are all ghosts and I am being haunted.

This is a test. I am commenting on my own post to see if I can see my own comment.

Edit: I can see this comment, just not any of the others, or my replies to those other comments.

Did you check to make sure you don’t have Neato in your blocklist?

I haven’t blocked anyone. Weirdly, I don’t see your comment, except in my inbox. If I go to my post and log out, your comment shows. If I log back in, I see no comments.
