> Unrelated, what are you using if anything to get reply notifications so fast? Are you just manually refreshing?

Just luck. I refresh more often right after commenting but otherwise it's erratic between a few refreshes an hour and several hours between refreshes.

If you need to get instant reply notifications and you do not want to refresh manually, you can use KWatch.io: that's a platform that I developed that monitors HN.

https://kwatch.io/monitoring-keywords-hacker-news-kwatch

You can give it the URL of a specific post or comment and it will notify you when new comments are made in the thread.

I hope it is useful.
