This is a really interesting perspective on it that I hadn't considered. I have long been annoyed by the lack of comment notifications but now that you put it that way I think you're right. This actually may be a feature of HN rather than a bug. Thanks for sharing that point.
- gfodor 8y agoThis might be the most meta comment chain on HN.
- joatmon-snoo 8y agoThis entire thread itself is pretty meta :)
- dreamcompiler 8y agoThis reply is quite clever, but at the current nesting level, nobody will notice.
- boterock 8y agoUnless it is the most upvoted comment
- toupeira 8y agoAnd behold, it is :)
- mikestew 8y agoNo, mgiannopoulos[0], there is no limit on nesting replies that I'm aware of. I'm nesting another one now! There is rate-limiting, though, which is probably what you hit. Wait a bit, and you can reply. Or click the "XX minutes ago", and I've found you can reply there. [0] https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=18186528 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=18186528
- mgiannopoulos 8y agoStrange way for rate limiting, allowing replies on one comment but not another.
- elliotec 8y agoI got this far, may as well continue the nesting experiment.
- dvlsg 8y agoYeah, this is still at the top for me. Moving it along! I wonder how far it would have to go before it starts having problems. Or before apps start having problems. Doing this from my phone, and the comments are starting to get fairly difficult to read.
- iamsabas 8y agoWell, I should at least help this scientific experiment...
- emobleed 8y agoFor Science!
- sabas_ge 8y agoI realized I commented with another account, so I guess I'll post again...
- goodrubyist 8y agoHmm
- mgiannopoulos 8y agoI noticed dreamcompiler! And apparently there is a limit to the nesting of replies (which is why i’m replying to the parent comment) ?!
