Why the API says a post doesn't have comments when the HTML page shows comments ?

Hi,

This post has comments : https://jlai.lu/post/26123233

But when asking the API : https://jlai.lu/api/v3/comment/list?post_id=26123233&sort=Old

An empty array is returned.

Why ?

Thanks

    Thanks.

    Now, why isn’t that required for an older post ?

    For example : https://lemmy.world/api/v3/comment/list?post_id=5&sort=Old

      Read the API docs for what type means: https://join-lemmy.org/lemmy-js-client-docs/v0.19/classes/LemmyHttp.html#getComments

      i’m guessing it might have something to do with the fact that jlai.lu is configured to default to the Local view while lemmy.world defaults to All
