"Real Time" Conversations in Github PR reviews

My team uses comments and responses both inline, and in the main "thread" of a PR review extensively. We consider these conversations to be important context for future engineers, so we take steps to ensure robust and frequent conversation. Because of this, it's become painfully common for a conversation spanning hours or days or more to get quite disjointed. If I don't take care to refresh the page before I respond to a comment, I'm very likely to see a handful of comments show up after I submit. These were comments that were made between page refreshes, which if not done manually, do not seem to occur at all.

If Github intends to support this type of workflow, would Github consider investing in improvements to it? My vague suggestion here would be to increase the "real time"-ness of PR conversations. At the very least, this could be something very similar to the "outdated" label comments get when new code as been pushed. At it's richest, it could be some sort of real-time conversation.

Thoughts?

Bumping. Pushes are already real time, so it only makes sense to expect comments to show up in real time as well. I’ve often replied to a thread, only to find out someone had already done so between refreshes.

For four years ,i had been Questioning if my wife loved me as i felt so unloved- so much that i occasionally asked if she Was having an affair, I felt she was really avoiding me, however i had a gut feeling that something wasn’t right and began to question my own sanity and anxiety. our children wondered why she was going out so much and not spending time with me and with us as a family. Eventually I had to come online to search for a way to get into my wife’s phone without her finding out and I came. Through a hacker who did a great job for me, I was able to get into her phone within 3 hours and I got access to all social media text messages and her phone Conversations live and Permanently. It was so Hard and hurt brutally that my wife was a cheating one and it really affected me. If you find yourself in a Situation Like this, i Suggest you contact via, EMAIL
