Sounds weird but sure I can add it for the next update.

I'd say they heard your request loud and clear.
I want the option to have child comments collapse
This already exists as both a gesture, a comment header tap action and there is even a setting to turn taps anywhere on the comment to collapse. How else do you want comments to be collapsed?
All the main comments will appear as the original. If I want to read the Comment of comments, I will open it.
Just to make sure I understand, the feature would auto collapse all children of top level comments but top level comments will be shown by default. Is that correct?
Edit: I guess currently this state doesn't even exist in the app because there's no such thing as a comment with all of its children collapsed into one.
As an example, the main comment will appear as in the screenshot. But children will not appear. But if I click on the main comment, the children comments will appear.

Yes this is correct

Sync for lemmy have got this feature
Oh I didn't mean no app had it. It was more of a mental note for myself.
