Better refreshing of comments

jevinskie opened this issue · 2 comments

Steps to repro:
Look at a story's comments when it is young.
Wait a while.
From the home tab, notice the story has more comments posted since you last read.
Tap the story to go to the comments.
New comments are not loaded.

Since the comments are cached, you know how many there were when last read (value X). The API call to get top stories also apparently includes the number of comments (value Y). Why not refresh the comments automatically when Y > X? I'd like to implement this if you don't think it would be too much work!

Yeah, this is a good thing to track. If you want to send me a patch, that would be great, or I can do it myself.

This is done! Should be in the next release.
