So the reason I couldn't see comments is because I followed the link, and then held down my right arrow key to whiz through the game and no comments appeared as the stones appeared on the board. That's because the comments are loaded asynchronously by ajax and take a long time to appear, by which time you've moved on to the next move (so you get loads of js errors). I suggest the developer stores a list of the moves with comments on first load (edit: it already has this as on move 0 it lists the moves with comments) so that when you whiz through it knows to display a "Loading comment" message on relevant moves (and not to issue the ajax request for comments immediately on moves the cache suggests have no comments (but have a small chance to have been commented since initial page load)), but wait a short time to reduce the request spam which is presumably why it is a lot slower to load comments after whizzing through moves that if you directly navigate to one with a fresh page request.
Interesting. I can see how that would be annoying
I plan to set up my development environment so that I can try to make some (probably small) contributions to the project. As the site states, it's in "alpha" mode although I think it is already very cool and useful despite some glitches like this one here and there.
