Howdy, y’all. :)

So, within the last couple of days or so, I’ve been having this problem where if I click on the notification bell, then the chain icon next to a shown reply, then click “Show context” above the horizontal rule (see screenshot), it doesn’t proceed to load the context. Rather, it just reloads the same page.

The strange thing is this doesn’t happen with every notification. Another notification I had was from here on the Blahaj Lemmy instance, and that worked fine. Maybe it’s a thing to do with federation protocols? Anyway, I’m no expert. I just thought I’d ask. :)

Cheers.

    Can you give me the url for that comment in your screenshot? It will be in your read notifications

      I click on the chain icon on my Inbox screen to open your comment up and I just get a white screen with Server error displayed.

        That means you most likely don’t have both English and Undetermined enabled in your profile language settings

          Holy shit! You can select multiple languages! I only had Undetermined selected because it said otherwise you wouldn’t see most posts.

          I never realized that because click on another just deselects the one you had selected. The only way to select multiple languages was to hold down ctrl which is not entirely obvious to everyone. Or maybe it is and I’m just a dumbass. Lol. That’s certainly a possibility. ^///^">

    The show context button doesn’t usually work if the comment you’ve replied to has been deleted/removed, so that could be the cause?

      In this case, no. The parent comment belongs to the OP, and is still there.

      The other comment below yours isn’t working either. Clicking the chain icon on my notifications screen or clicking “1 more reply ->” below your comment isn’t doing anything at all.

        I can’t replicate this.

          It’s happening again. I can reply through the Inbox screen, but I can’t actually see your comment by clicking the chain icon and then “1 more reply”. Ugh…
