I thought we had this working already but for some reason the comment counts don't show up (anymore?). Maybe they never worked? i dunno. Pam brought this up to me via feedback and I agree that it's super important to have these to send users social signal that conversations are happening. Otherwise it looks like nobody is talking!

Here is the screenshot with the issue, no comment counts at all:

I think this is a really important thing to fix.

The reply counts only work on thread view, on the timelines you would have to load every reply to every post to count the replies, or you could use NIP-45 COUNT but not many relays support it
