The other scrapers are facing the same problem. They just stop when the 10 are scraped. This scraper will continue to scrape them again and again.

I've looked through it, but scrolling in the comment section only loads this much. I'm not sure why. Can you see all the comments on your side?am

If you look at the corresponding Apify Actor. Meta enforced a rule no allowing scrolling unless loged in.

However the Apify actor only finds 10 root comments. Not sure if the 93 is the 10 root comments + comments on root comments.

Seems like a difficult job. Just hoping to find someone who can fix it :)

I mean, if I log in to my FB account and access it normally, I can only see a maximum of 93 comments. And I just tried a different post url and it seems to be fine.
