It’s possible there’s a bug in the comment ordering here that we should look into, but it’s very unlikely to be because the agreement voting is being taken into account.
There’s definitely a bug / inconsistency here: the linked comments are in a different order when viewed as a permalink vs. when viewed in the thread itself. But yeah, I was way too quick to assume, based on a single data point, that this was a) a new problem and b) caused by or influenced by agreement karma or the related recent website update. Oops. I thought these things were likely related because, as stated in this thread, only karma (but not agreement) is supposed to dictate how things are ordered; so when I saw a wrong ordering with differing agreement scores, I figured the latter had to be the reason.
Anyway, do you want me to post this issue as a github ticket, or is this comment enough? Actually, I have the same question for my two aesthetics-related comments here and here.
Bug: When comment threads are loaded as a permalink, comment sorting is wrong or at least influenced by agreement karma.
Example: This comment thread. In this screenshot, the comment with 2 karma and 1 agreement is sorted above the comment with 8 karma and 0 agreement.
