How do I stop this?
It's getting really frustrating, almost every post has missing comments. What causes this?
EDIT: I needed to select both "English" and "Undetermined" in my language settings

Most common cause is people changing their language settings in their profile. It's a daily occurrence. The app really needs to tell people "25 messages not displayed because you are only viewing in Spanish".
I have it set to undetermined
It allows selecting multiple languages, but it's not clear and setting multiple is fiddly - most sites use multiple checkboxes instead for this reason. Anyway, if you select Undetermined, English and whatever else you're happy to see, you'll see a lot more comments (and posts, probably).
Edit: to select multiple, hold control while clicking/spacebarring to add another.
It should have two language settings - those you might post in (for the dropdown on making a comment/post) and for those you're happy to read (I'd just set it to all, since I can always translate anything that looks interesting).
If you block one account, and they made the top level comment, you don't see anything. Even if 100 people replied in the chain.
It'll just be blank.
Still worth it for extreme cases, but it's not like reddit where you see everything else.
Thats it? I guess Im unblocking some users.
If you have language settings or are not showing bot accounts, those comments will be hidden too but the comment count still includes them
It's almost certainly your language settings
Language is set to undetermined
Adding "English" to the language settings might help (you CTRL/CMD+Click to add another language to the list, from memory)
Copy thread url, paste it into an incognoto mode browser that's not logged into the instance. Compare what you see with your account settings and decide if you need to make changes or not.

I think you get the same result using the colorful button, which each post and comment has:
That's in the web UI. IDK what app OP uses.
In incognito I see all the comments... I don't know what account settings I could change to make this happen. My language is set to undetermined
Try setting your language in your account to whatever the root thread language is.
I'm seeing everything. Even counted the comments. Did you untick Undetermined by chance?
Nope, also I can see this comment in my inbox but when I click through to it it's gone
Are the comments missing when you load the website?
Not sure why you're seeing that. I'm on the same instance as you and I see them all, so it's not a defederation issue. You don't have a big block list, I assume. Seems strange.
