Hi there! I see you're having trouble with the comments not loading in the Breitbart app. To get to the bottom of this, could you tell me a bit more?

- Are you using the Breitbart app specifically, or are you visiting the Breitbart website on your WebKit browser on Windows 10?
- Has this issue just started happening, or has it been ongoing?
- Are you seeing any error messages or is the comments section just blank or spinning indefinitely?
- Have you already tried any troubleshooting steps like clearing cache or disabling any browser extensions?

Once I have a little more info, I'll guide you through some steps to try to fix this.

Thanks for the info! Since the comments just recently stopped loading on your Windows 10 device using the Breitbart app or website, we can try a few focused steps to get them back.

Here’s what I recommend trying:

1. Clear your browser cache and cookies. Sometimes stored data conflicts with the comments feature, especially as Breitbart uses a commenting platform like Disqus which can be sensitive to this. Since you're on a WebKit-based browser on Windows 10, you can usually clear cache and cookies in the browser’s settings under Privacy or History.

2. Check your tracking protection or ad-block settings. Some privacy or ad-block extensions can block the loading of comments. Temporarily disable any such extensions or adjust your browser’s tracking protection to “Standard” or off for Breitbart’s site. This has been noted as an issue by some users2 1.

3. Try a different browser or private/incognito mode. Open Breitbart in a private window or an alternative browser to see if comments load there. This helps isolate if it’s a browser-specific issue.

4. Restart your network connection or router. If the issue persists across different browsers, try rebooting your home router. Sometimes network issues or firewall settings can block comment servers4.

5. Check if Breitbart’s servers or comment system are down. It’s rare but possible that the Disqus or Breitbart comment service is experiencing outages. Websites like isitdownrightnow.com can confirm this.

If you want, I can guide you step-by-step through any of these fixes. Does any of this sound like something you want to try first? Also, are you using the app or the website on your Windows 10 machine? That will help me tailor the instructions more precisely.
