Disable "hidden conversations" in GitHub pull requests?

When I go to a page of an open PR in GitHub, e.g. https://github.com/xyz/abc/pull/123, when the number of conversations exceeds some limit, GitHub automatically collapses some of them in the middle under a box that says "[n] hidden conversations"; you have to click "Load more" in order to see them.

Since the open conversations are the most important thing on a PR and the reason I open or refresh the page in the first place, is there a way to undo this and always show all the conversations? I haven't seen anything relevant in settings; does a browser extension exist to do this?

I've had the same issues. This isn't a solution, but it might be a workaround. I only just discovered it, so I'll have to see how it feels going forward.

  1. In a GitHub PR, change the tab from "Conversation" to "Files changes"
  2. There's a new dropdown called "Conversations", which seems to list all of them.

Again, I know this isn't a solution. I would prefer to find the same solution you're seeking. But I wanted to share this for anyone else landing here with the same issue in case someone finds it helpful, because I didn't know that it existed until now.

Also, I'm cross-posting this information in a related webapps.stackexchange question: https://webapps.stackexchange.com/questions/148308/how-to-always-show-all-pr-conversations-in-github
