Messages don't nest correctly on PC, but works fine on mobile.

More levels than 2, hmm, I definitely see more than that on PC, though it does have a limit.

I think you might be in classic view rather than tree view on PC. The 3 stack icon to the right of top, hot, active, newest, oldest; does it have classic view selected? In classic view I only see a single indent, but in tree view I see at least 9

Wow, thanks. I didn't know of or press that button in either PC or mobile, so wonder why they were different.

What is the classic view for? It looks the same as tree view, but with aforementioned lack of clarity.

I'm not quite sure it's documented anywhere exactly, just had a search and didn't find anything yet, but I can imagine the different views work better for microblogging. For instance, I think chat view appears to be how mastodon/twitter would display replies. Classic sort of seems like an inbetween where you still get a different level off of the first reply but it goes into chat after that. Since you might be looking at things like mastodon toots, maybe the idea was to make a way for it to be viewed similar as well

Edit: I guess classic is sort of like youtube comment section now that I think of it. Though it might be better if comments were collapsible
