Comments with null points and different order than HN

[ig-perez]

Hi,

Thanks for maintaing this repo. I have noticed comments from a given item return with points: null, probably this is causing the comments are not returned in the same order as when querying HN. For example:

https://hn.algolia.com/api/v1/items/26750452
https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=26750452

Thanks

Is this project still maintained?
Sorting comments by popularity is still broken :'(

cc @Haroenv anyone that could take a look at this?

Hi @ig-perez @JonasBa, the issue in the initial comment seems to be fixed (both link show the same number of points).

@pierregoutheraud could you elaborate? Do you have an example where it's not working? Selecting "Comments" and leaving the default sorting "Popularity" seems to work (tried searching as well):

Cool, thanks @julienpa . @pierregoutheraud feel free to close the issue if works for you as well.

Best,
Ivan

@julienpa When sorting comments by popularity "All time" time range works but any other time range returns the same results:

Screen.Recording.2022-10-03.at.23.26.22.mov

This might be because hackernews api does not return the score for comments anymore.
