On my side it's with no doubt 20! Maybe you should check it again to make sure.
We can try tho
We're doing science!
What's science precious?
Boil 'em, mash 'em, stick 'em in a stew
THATS IT LADS! ROCK AND STONE!!!
RAINBOW BABYYY
What's the count now anyway?
I think this is 27. The web ui uses a 7 colour rainbow for comments were nearly at 4 rainbows now.
I’m fishing there isn’t really a limit apart from when the ui becomes unusable.
I had to flip my phone sideways to even see more than just the up and down vote buttons at this point.
PONG!
The show must go on!
Jerboa still displaying everything properly (for now).
Connect's all squished up.
Let's do moar! For science.
Poke
Noice
Does it go further??
?
Can't see this one
Boooo
why did we stop?
Can't stop won't stop
Is anybody keeping count anymore?
Depth - 41.
Jerboa's still solid (although it is nearing its limit).
Connect only displays rainbow lines now, oof.
I wish someone replicated how Relay did it. After like 10-20 comments, it made the next comment a top level one when we clicked on 'show more'. This meant that the depth never went below 10-20 for anything and nothing got squished up.
The usable comment area is getting smaller and smaller on Jerboa though. Surely we'll hit some UI issue soon
Probably yeah.
I already raised a UX improvement request with the developer of Connect.
If something similar happens with Jerboa then that can be brought to their notice too.
This is a good experiment.
It really is. I can only hope other people are as brave as we are to get this deep into the comment section.
Oi you parent comment lads, keep this train going will ya? It's for science and stuff.
depth++
++depth
Okay
Fine
I'll
Do
It
Myself
Then
Yup.
Jerboa's broken now too.
Can't see the 3 dots button anymore in potrait mode.
Still readable on my phone with Jerboa with all buttons still showing. But soon all buttons won't be able to display. Guess it depends on phone size / dpi / resolution.
