Currently if you archive a Lemmy thread you can see all the posts and comments but all replies to all comments are hidden in a “X# more replies ->” which if clicked it tries opening it forever and the replies never load.

Edit: updated title and body so its more clear im asking about how lemmy can be updated so its easier for the wayback machine to also archive the replies to comments

    The view all comments button, does it add a param to the query string? Could be worth a try.

      I don’t see a vote all comments button (atleast on mobile)

        When you click from a reply in your mailbox, you only see that post, you can click View all comments and it makes a request to the backend with max_depth=8. I thought there would be a way to use that parameter on the main post, but unfortunately, it doesn’t seem to work like that right now. It’s probably worth raising this as a bug on their issue tracker and seeing if they consider this.
