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

Example: https://web.archive.org/web/20230801065606/https://lemmy.world/post/2398000

you are viewing a single comment's thread
view the rest of the comments

I dont really understand what your comment is implying lol. I’m asking if there’s something admins or ideally the devs can change in the codebase so its easier for the wayback machine to properly archive lemmy threads.

There likely is something that could be done. You could try raising this as an issue on their GitHub project page or wherever the devs tend to hang out.
