There is very common situation on the Internets where comments may be more interestimg then the article they are referring to. Btw HN sorts most popular comments first, so reading few first branches only is OK.
- bryanrasmussen 5y agoI'm pretty sure HN has the common problem of most recommendation systems that earliest interesting comments have a significant advantage, and so if you have two branches that you read a really great comment may be lower down.
- eimrine 5y agoAs far as I have understood, the order of branches is not forms on the time basis. Try going to not very popular topic on HN with few branches and upvote something. You will see that sometimes your upvote will change an order of branches.
