Generally, the users respond to the posts by sharing their opinions as replies. If you want to follow these conversations, follow this guide on how to view comment on X:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Sign in to your X account using the desktop browser or the official app.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Look for the post, aka tweet, whose replies you want to see. You can also search for the post using the platform\u2019s search tool. The <strong>search bar<\/strong> is at the top right corner of the desktop browser. On the app, tap the <strong>magnifying glass<\/strong> button in the bottom navigation panel.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Left-click the post to see the expanded view. This shows the comments on the post.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As you scroll through the comments, you\u2019ll come across the following button \u2014 <strong>Show Probable Spam<\/strong>. Clicking on this button displays additional replies from other Twitter users. When X\u2019s algorithm identifies comments as offensive or spam, it hides them behind this button.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Before 2024, the social media giant used <strong>Show More Replies<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_To_View_Twitter_Comments_Show_Hidden_Replies\"><\/span>How To View Twitter Comments: Show Hidden Replies<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Did you know that you can hide specific replies in your posts? The platform introduced this feature in<a href=\"https:\/\/blog.x.com\/en_us\/topics\/product\/2019\/more-control-over-your-conversations-globally\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> November 2019<\/a> to give authors control over offensive or irrelevant comments.&nbsp;Due to this feature, it\u2019s likely you\u2019re not seeing all the replies to a post.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here\u2019s how to view Twitter comments the publisher wants to keep out of sight:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Log in to your X account and locate the post in your timeline or via the platform\u2019s search feature.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Tap the tweet to go to its expanded view.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Left-click the <strong>overflow<\/strong> button or the <strong>three-dot<\/strong> button on the top right corner of the tweet.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>A <strong>dropdown menu<\/strong> will appear from the <strong>overflow<\/strong> button. Select <strong>View Hidden Replies<\/strong> from this menu, and X will show comments that aren\u2019t visible.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"512\" src=\"https:\/\/tweetdelete.net\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/2-6-1024x512.png\" alt=\"TweetDelete\u2019s screenshot of Twitter\u2019s hidden replies setting in a post\u2019s dropdown menu.\" class=\"wp-image-4451\" srcset=\"https:\/\/tweetdelete.net\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/2-6-1024x512.png 1024w, https:\/\/tweetdelete.net\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/2-6-300x150.png 300w, https:\/\/tweetdelete.net\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/2-6-768x384.png 768w, https:\/\/tweetdelete.net\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/2-6.png 1300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_To_See_New_Comments_on_X_Sorting_Twitter_Replies\"><\/span>How To See New Comments on X: Sorting Twitter Replies<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>When you go to a post\u2019s reply section, you\u2019ll notice the order seems random. At times, the<a href=\"https:\/\/tweetdelete.net\/resources\/latest-tweets-on-twitter\/\"> latest tweets<\/a> are on top while they are towards the bottom in other posts. However, this isn\u2019t the case, as the platform shows what it thinks you\u2019ll find relevant.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It focuses on displaying comments that add to the conversation. X uses the following factors, along with other signals, to determine what to show:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>The user\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/tweetdelete.net\/resources\/x-premium-how-to-unlock-a-new-experience-on-twitter\/\">X Premium<\/a> subscription tier as this influences the reply\u2019s ranking. For example, X Premium+ subscribers get the largest visibility boost on this platform.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>If the comment is from a person you follow on X&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>If the author, i.e., the post\u2019s creator, responded to a reply<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In August 2024, the platform introduced multiple filters to sort the replies according to your preferences. Here\u2019s how to see new comments on X:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Go to your X timeline after you sign in to your account.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Find the post by scrolling through your timeline or searching for it.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Tap the post to expand it.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Follow the instructions based on your device:\n<ol style=\"list-style-type:lower-alpha\" class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Desktop or Mobile Browser (web)<\/strong>: You\u2019ll see the <strong>Most Relevant<\/strong> text with a downward arrow between the post and the reply section. Left-click this button and choose how you want the platform to sort the comments.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>App (Android and iOS)<\/strong>: X shows the <strong>Trending Replies<\/strong> button between the tweet and the comments. Tap this button to change the sorting order to your preference.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>As of August 2024, you have the following sorting options:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Most Relevant (web) or Trending Replies (app)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Most Recent<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Most Liked<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"900\" height=\"900\" src=\"https:\/\/tweetdelete.net\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/3-8.png\" alt=\"TweetDelete\u2019s screenshot of Twitter\u2019s new feature to sort replies under every tweet.\" class=\"wp-image-4452\" srcset=\"https:\/\/tweetdelete.net\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/3-8.png 900w, https:\/\/tweetdelete.net\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/3-8-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/tweetdelete.net\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/3-8-150x150.png 150w, https:\/\/tweetdelete.net\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/3-8-768x768.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"FAQ_on_How_To_View_X_Comments\"><\/span>FAQ on How To View X Comments<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>This section covers questions about how to view comments in X.<\/p>\n\n\n<div id=\"rank-math-faq\" class=\"rank-math-block\">\n<div class=\"rank-math-list \">\n<div id=\"faq-question-1724325373648\" class=\"rank-math-list-item\">\n<h3 class=\"rank-math-question \"><strong>How do you look at comments on X?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<div class=\"rank-math-answer \">\n\n<p>You can look at comments on X by opening the post to its expanded view.

Remember to check the hidden replies page or search for the replies if you can\u2019t locate them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As you may already know, when you reply to a post, everyone can see it. It\u2019s good practice to review your comments and delete unnecessary ones. Why? Well, offensive, controversial, and insensitive replies can hurt your reputation. Also, online arguments in X\u2019s reply section will show you in a bad light.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It can affect your life in several ways. For instance, you may find it harder to get a job as recruiters often perform social media background checks. It can also change people\u2019s perception of you in the real world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>All your comments are visible in the <strong>Replies<\/strong> tab on your profile page. However, if you want to delete these comments, you must manually remove each reply.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>TweetDelete gives you the features to remove multiple replies simultaneously. The auto-delete tweets task looks for replies on your profile page using the following criteria:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Keywords<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Hashtags<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Date ranges<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It runs in the background and periodically removes any reply that matches your requirements. The <a href=\"https:\/\/tweetdelete.net\/delete-multiple-tweets\/\">mass-delete tweets<\/a> feature uses keywords and date ranges to remove a large number of replies in bulk.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There\u2019s also the <a href=\"https:\/\/tweetdelete.net\/unlike-tweets\/\">unlike tweets tool<\/a>, which removes your likes from specific replies.
