- nateb2022 3y agoI find it hard to maintain my focus, it updates too quickly to finish reading a comment before the next one pushes it out of place.
- HotGarbage 3y agoIf you scroll back, the auto-scrolling disables. Or at least it should...
- nateb2022 3y agoOoh nice feature, I hadn't realized this before. Thank you!
- quickthrower2 3y agoSimilar to https://news.ycombinator.com/newcomments https://news.ycombinator.com/newcomments on autorefresh? Because it is “shit” I assumed you would filter to downvotes comments :-)
- HotGarbage 3y agoYes, though it includes submissions too. The items are too new to have any downvotes, but being so new you might catch some detritus that hasn't been killed yet.
- I_Am_Nous 3y agoFirehose describes it well, some people are wordy and type a lot (I'm guilty) so maybe a comment character limit might improve readability?
- HotGarbage 3y agoScrolling up stops the auto scroll. Would an infinite scroll be better? I was inspired by https://firesky.tv/ https://firesky.tv/
