no, i disagree strongly.
i despise reddit's collapsible / half-loading comments. on large threads it loads the same 10% every single time and hides a lot of the good responses.
just give me all the comments in one shot. i'm a big boy, i can handle reading.
- function_seven 11y agoYou're disagreeing with a different request, then. I'd just like to collapse comment trees. That's all. I don't want to only partial load them. (I can see why you'd infer that from the post, because it references reddit) It's an embarassingly-simple feature to add, and it would provide a huge value to all of us that browse this site on our phones.
- caffeinewriter 11y agoI agree, but why not keep the loading structure, with just an option to collapse individual threads, having them opened by default. So, the experience doesn't change for users that wish to avoid collapsable trees, but gives the option to users that do want it.

- thex10 11y agoit's _not_ given to you 'all in one shot' though. the 'top' comment is first, along with all of its responses, then the second top comment, and so on. you'll still miss many good responses because you won't scroll through hundreds of comments (which can be very lengthy on a mobile screen). also let's not conflate collapsible and half-loading. this thread is not advocating partial loading. you dont need partial loading of comments in order to enable collapsible functionality.
- beachstartup 11y agosometimes i start at the bottom and scroll up. i might be weird.
- s_dev 11y agoThere's no advantage to not having the feature. It isn't a trade off so it's somewhat odd that you disagree "strongly".
