Addressed in a different section, and I agree. Infinite scrolling is bad, pages are fine as long as there's a search function.
(perhaps there should be a general section for... general things and feedback regarding the site itself?)

Waah At least with pages, you could always reference an actual page number. With this new layout you'd have to scroll a huge list of comments to find one post. For example, there's 4000+ posts in the HiFiMAN HE-350 discussion. You'd have to scroll to the bottom, load up the comments, then scroll again, and so on. It's basically one extremely long discussion without breaks.

WaahAnd with no search in the comments it's definitely a nightmare. My favorite new feature is the inability to edit anything other than the END of the text. I can't cut/copy/paste from the comment entry field anymore. It appears they are using something like React/Redux/Firebase where they are sending all the input as it is entered, without honoring the cursor location so any delete/backspace only acts on the last character in the box.

dragon788So that's what it was, haha. No wonder cut and paste were wonky.
I've said this before and I'll say it again, an option to use the old layout would be nice, at least until these problems are addressed and resolved.

WaahI think it'd be cool if they used Disqus, but not sure how that'd play into the whole "gated community" vibe they've got going on. Also not sure if it has any better search functionality.

dragon788I had the "only at the end" bug, too, but it went away on a refresh. That really would have been the icing on the cake if it was constant.

Waah@Waah @rantng @dragon788 @billnye - You all bring up important points. We're actively working on improving Comments & Replies as well as the Talk feature itself. Each of these were early versions and we have plans to continue to iterate it on them - next up is working on sorting mechanisms and comments search. We just released a fix for Comment & Reply editing - but please let me know if you continue to see any wonky behavior. Please feel free to continue to post here or shoot us a not to our product feedback email - wishes@massdrop.com
Hope you're all gearing up for a happy holiday week :)
