No, it's something newer; last year or so. They show "top comments", with a "view all" option, but that "view all" option will often say there's 49 comments and zero show up, even on an old post.

The Graph API has also fallen apart, with their solution being to close the bug submission tool for most issue types. The "replacement" is a discussion forum where no Facebook employees visit, most posts have zero responses, and no issue tracking whatsoever.

Seems like Facebook is more in maintenance mode vs Instagram. Lets not also forget they made a massive push into Metaverse so I'm sure engineering was stretched thin on their other platforms.

Wasn't Graph API going away because of that whole Cambridge Analyitica scandal?

This actually seems like a great way to say it: maintenance mode. I'm really shocked at how badly facebook.com runs in Firefox latest on an M1 MacBook Air. It's completely broken and has been since they've launched this React version.
