That forum format is so confusing. Who is talking?
The lines
That's my excuse in real life too.
It goes top to bottom, but the crop removed the usernames so there's no way of knowing who said what.
Right, it looks like there are 7 levels of comments that are hidden. The first one we see is responding to comment level 7. The 2nd comment is responding to comment level 6 (not the first comment that we see as it appears). And so on.
So it looks like nobody is actually responding to a thread that we can see.
No, Tumblr nests the original the furthest in. The opposite of places like Reddit/Lemmy, where they nest subsequent comments down. So the furthest to the right is the original comment, and each step out is a new response to the original.
