Is there actually a limit to how far a comment thread can go?

it just continues forever until the ui either fails or doesnt

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago (3 children)

Or until someone of us here stops commenting

Two reply from two people at the exact same time. Do I need to answer both of you to win now?

Btw really nice meme.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Nah, one is enough. ^^ Curiosity got the better of me thinking about how squished the UI might end up looking.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Thanks for allowing me to only write one comment all the time.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Yeah, one comment keeps it simple. We're just stress testing.

We're in the third rainbow, keep building more stripes lol

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

No worrys. I will never stop.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 years ago (1 children)

And we're about to enter the fourth rainbow dimension in the next comment...

Alright, looks like 40% filled up on my screen atm.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Rookie numbers, it's probably 15% on my screen, There's space for a lot more rainbows

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

My screen is used 50% now on my Fairphone 3+

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I hope we're all talking about portrait orientation. Oh boy, filling it up in landscape mode seems a daunting task. °!°

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

In my App landscape is the same because it makes splitscreen between the Post and the comment section. So the comments are the same width.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I see, somehow completely forgot that apps might be different. In browser version in landscape (I just noticed) there's also the right sidebar, which reserves some space. So it wouldn't even have to go all the way.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

It's getting really tight here.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Plenty of space for me still (browser version on desktop)

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Yea the moment I have no space here anymore I have to switch to desktop.

Let's start the sixth rainbow!

Nice, bit over half way point here.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I just calculated exact subpixel accuracy, for me it's exactly 20.5̅9̅5̅5̅3̅3̅4̅9̅8̅7̅5̅9̅3̅0̅5̅2̅1̅0̅9̅1̅8̅1̅1̅4̅1̅4̅3̅9̅2̅0̅ % that is still missing to fill the whole comment body with rainbows, way to go!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Thats not accurate anymore because of my reply. Recalculate please.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I do wonder if there's a hard limit at some point regarding "nested replies"...
