Facebook is a social platform where people interact and engage with each other’s posts. You can comment on someone’s post, and when people comment on your post, you can view the various comments. However, Facebook uses the comment ranking feature where instead of showing you all the comments, it filters them based on relevance. If you are tired of these comment rankings, you can set Facebook to display all comments by default.
To view all comments on Facebook, you must turn off your account’s comment ranking option. Open your Facebook account and click on the settings and privacy option. Go to the audience and visibility section, and you will get the option for public content. Once you click on it, you can turn off the comment ranking feature so that Facebook can show you all the comments by default.
Today’s guide presents the steps for turning off the comment ranking feature on Facebook to allow you to view all comments on Facebook. Also, we will see how you can see all the comments you’ve made on Facebook and how to see your friend’s comments on your Facebook posts.
How To See All Comments on Facebook
Earlier, Facebook allowed users to see all comments on someone’s post as they appear chronologically. However, Facebook later changed this and introduced the sorting feature, which utilizes the comment ranking. With this feature, you can only see comments that Facebook thinks are relevant to you.
The question is, “how does Facebook know which comments are more relevant to you?” The good news is that you can turn off this feature, and once you do, you will see all comments chronologically without ranking.
On the Facebook app:
- Open your Facebook mobile app and sign in to your account.
- Click on the Menu icon at the top for Android and at the bottom for iOS.
- Scroll down to the next page and tap on the Settings & Privacy button.
- Next, click on “Settings.”
- Scroll to the Audience and Visibility section and tap Followers and Public Content.
- Turn off the Comment Ranking feature.
That’s it. Anyone viewing comments on your Facebook post will view all the comments without any ranking involved. This way, even when you check your post’s comments, you will see all the comments chronologically.
On the computer’s browser:
- Open your Facebook account on your computer.
- Tap on your profile icon at the top.
- Select the option for Settings & Privacy.
- Click on “Settings.”
- Locate the option for Public Posts and click on it.
- Click the Edit button next to the Comment Ranking option.
- Click the Off option to save the changes.
Facebook will now display comments on your posts chronologically with no ranking involved.
