Comments not visable, extension says "1 comments" but wont display it.

I’ve been searching the @GabDissenter tag on gab to read dissenter comment threads and I’ve discovered that many of of the links I follow lead to the extension telling me there is “1 comments” but it doesn’t display those comments.

I know they exist because I can see the comment that was written by the shared post about it to Gab. Maybe it’s a problem with the “share to gab” check box or something else? Here is an example:

Fun to see what weird hacks people are still doing to classic videogames these days. Plus there's often games being translated into English for the first time.

But i’ve seen many more like this.

(oops, spoke too soon, still seeing it) It appears this particular issue has been resolved! The comment threads effected are still effected but new ones are working correctly from what I can see!

Thank you for flagging this issue. Will look into appropriate design patterns for the website to make this less confusing for everyone.

Thank you! I actually figured out the mechanism for the bug. The comments aren’t qualifying as a Top comments and so the Top/controversial/latest comments sorting button are being hidden and the comment section is treated as if no one has commented. I was able to make the comments visable by making my own comment, reloading the dissenter comments for that URL, now suddenly the Sorting buttons become visible and I am able to click on latest and see the other comments.
