"Reply" button not being shown in some cases #42

I cannot see the reply button on certain comments, but I can't determine what the pattern might be. I tried the site without the extension installed and I could reply. Here's an example:

That's strange. Have you been facing this on many comments?

If possible, could you send a screenshot of the console logs? It'll help to debug the extension. Thanks :)

I scrolled through the page and saw in on few comments. It was always bottom level comments, but not every bottom level comment. I reloaded the page and it looked like reply was on everything. If I see the issue again I'll be sure to post the console logs.

Thanks for the info. I'll look into this soon

Looking into this further, it seems to an issue on HN's side. Here is a screenshot from the same thread but with the extension disabled:

Since this is a bug (probably) on Hacker News itself, I think I'll close this issue. It's best to inform HN by emailing them: hn@ycombinator.com

Thanks again :)
