Have you considered making the website actually show the comments instead of pinning yourself on every large post?

- Teever 6y agoHackernews has very few staff and most of them are busy with administration/moderation. I agree kind of odd to see pinned posts by Dang but I have a feeling that's the best they can do with the resources at hand.
- detaro 6y agoGiven that they specifically introduced pagination to avoid issues caused by too-large single pages, probably yes. (tbh I would have passive-agressively made the "next" link 100px Comic Sans, but it's probably a good thing I'm not responsible for that)
- dang 6y agoYes, but I don't want this temporary state to get too comfortable because it's not the desired solution: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=24042165 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=24042165 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=25065663 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=25065663 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=25087113 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=25087113 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=25383091 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=25383091 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=25710620 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=25710620 (thanks tzs!) "Every large post" is an exaggeration, of course—I probably do this on fewer than 10% of the paginated threads.
