Started using Boost for Lemmy when I made my account. The whole time, the "View all comments" button has never worked; after a while I made this post highlighting the issue, and have seen a handful submitted by others stating the same thing. Several updates later, it still does not work, and remains incredibly frustrating when returning to a thread via a reply several child-comments deep.

Edit: I'm no programmer, but what I believe to be a simple fix would be to change the destination of the link to the URL of the post.. my guess is there's some holdover code in there from the reddit days that simply isn't translating.

Edit: fixed as of Nov 4 2026. Thanks!

After years of using boost, I have started using summit due to bugs and I don't see myself going back.

    This is genuinely the only bug I encounter on a regular basis. The other one I have also posted about but have been assured it's "as intended" ("mark all as read" does not, in fact, mark all messages as read - private messages will show a notification unless you go to your comment replies and click the checkmark there. Totally intuitive right!) - but I don't have as many PMs as I used to so it doesn't bother me much anymore

    This will be the first time I've ever pointed out a bug and had it actually be fixed. Thank you so much!

    Yeah, kinda sucks it never got fixed.

    Also if a post body or comment have too many pic it stutter HARD, sometime it crashed. I saw someone raised the issue last time but it seems it never get fixed as well.
