Hey all. I’m having this issue where a bunch of content replies disappear on me. Or, rather, they are in my inbox, but when I click them to go reply and vote on them in the comments of the post where they are, they are completely missing from the thread/conversation. So to make it clear, they never disappear from my inbox, but they just can’t be seen in the comments section itself, under the associated post.
Is this a bug or expected behavior?
Thanks for any help.
That is the most ridiculous system lmao. Not selecting anything should just result in everything being seen. Not having selected anything should
notbe seen as a mistake, because obviously you want to see messages…So any comments specified to be Swedish e.g. won’t be seen unless I select that language? And I can specify however many I want?
Yes it’s caused a lot of confusion. Can’t tell you how many users I’ve helped with this since joining (that and people who have incorrectly identified their account as a bot) and still sometimes I forget and end up trying to troubleshoot other things for people.
They did add a warning that you won’t see most content with undetermined deselected but it’s still not clear enough imo
And yes, you’ll only see the languages you’ve selected (and unspecified with undetermined selected as well) assuming the comment was set properly. And as many as you want. But there’s nothing stopping someone from selecting English and still typing Swedish. And idk how many apps actually support marking language when posting or commenting. Sync certainly doesn’t so I’m unsure which this comment here will actually be set as. Probably undetermined? Because I also have English and French selected and I doubt it knows which.
Edit: upon editing this on website that appears to be the case?
Well you’re a kind person to actually try to help so many. Much love to you for that.
Yeah, I saw that warning, but I think I read it too fast, and read “select” instead of “deselect”. Or my brain somehow tried to reduce the message to only one negative, and got lost along the way. Not the greatest system if you have to have that blaring warning sign, as I mentioned. 😅
But yeah, anyway, thanks again! 😁 Have a great rest of your day!
That’s sweet of you to say. Thank you. I truly believe in this place and I’ve witnessed many of the speedbumps people encounter and I’m happy to help overcome them. Sometimes I think about how many more generally helpful people reddit has lost and it makes me happy.
Hope you have a good day too. Enjoy all the newly accessible content.
