I left that tab open for a few hours and when I came back my laptop was really hot and the CPU fans kicked in.

    when implemented properly

    it’s probably a buggy implementation which is why they’re disabling it for now, and yea it causes server load too

      Fair. Bit of a shame though. I always enjoy leaving the comment page open and follow the new comments live as they get posted.

        eh I don’t really like it cause it messes up your scroll position if you were reading something, easy enough to just manually refresh and sort by new

        I wouldn’t be surprised if they later fix it and bring it back as an option
