I sometimes want to see the content of dead posts or comments. Either the post link has been removed entirely or the comment was dimmed to oblivion and I have to resort to dark magic to read them.
- gabrielsroka 4y agoIsn't that what the showdead option is on the Settings page?
- jzombie 4y agoI am pretty sure that I don't have a settings page available on my account as silly as that sounds. Hopefully someone else can back me up on that, but it might not be an available feature unless you have a certain amount of karma.
- gabrielsroka 4y agoClick your name on the top right corner. It doesn't look like you need karma.
- jzombie 4y agoSorry, I was mistaken. I didn't notice the setting for some reason, though it is enabled to "yes". --- To clarify, I thought there may have been an additional page that was the "settings" page. It's been a long day, though, and I'm stuck doing some debugging so my mind isn't all here at the moment.

- mindcrime 4y agoWhat do you see at https://news.ycombinator.com/user?id=jzombie https://news.ycombinator.com/user?id=jzombie Is there not a "showdead" toggle right below the field for your email address? I had always thought that setting was available independent of any karma threshold...
- jzombie 4y agoIt is indeed there. I missed it earlier as I was scrambling to find a "settings" link and somehow missed that this was, in fact, the settings page.
