Yeah this is the right solution. Just add a link to the page numbers at the top of the thread. It's unintrusive, and still follows the minimalist design tenants of this website.


or put previous/next links in a line at the start of the comments, instead of just 'more' all the way at the bottom.

i wonder if they're constrained because their staff can't maintain the codebase well in the nonstandard arc language, and pg obviously has retired


If the codebase is the problem then the obvious best solution is to write a bot that automatically posts dang's comment, with links to the various pages. :)


How do we know this isn’t already the solution :)?


Didn’t realize this was all running on arc. Ironically this will become a pipeline problem.


Oh no—we love arc and we're good at it.

Edit: reasonably good.


The pagination is only because of performance issues on the server to begin with. Rather than adding extra complexity at the top of the thread, the solution is to improve performance and render the whole page like we used to.
