PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE get rid of the extremely inconvenient (and extremely annoying) "See More Replies" function which hides comments and makes it impossible to search for them.
I have seen many comments hating this new feature. It just makes the platform harder and less enjoyable to use!
Thanks.

How would you rate the customer service you received?

Well, this thread is an important one, the comments and concerns are valid. I wonder if the boys at SA read these things?

a) This new system doesn't seem to tag posters correctly

b) Comments directed/replying to myself used to show up seperately under the bell symbol - not anymore

We understand how it is designed to works.  But, it is a very inconvenient design.  And it is very frustrating to use when commenting.  Also, the Notifications links do not always work, often completely failing to connect to any fresh comment.  Also, the link at the top of the comment thread indicating the new comments below does not work at all, never takes me to a comment.  TOTAL FAILURE.

Unfortunately it does NOT satisfy me.  I have little tolerance for stupidity and having a feature that arbitrarily hides comments is stupid.  There is no reason for it. You never used to do it.  I don't see any reason why this "show more replies" or "Load Previous Comments" even exists. When the format goes back to the 2020 format where when I will resume reading and writing on SA
