2. Switch to a stable internet connection

Another common possibility of not seeing someone’s story is a network problem that comes from your side. YouTube consumes a lot of data. If you use Wi-Fi, you may not have this problem, but if you use YouTube with your mobile data, you may face this problem no matter what data pack you have.

If you use YouTube for more than an hour a day, you will lose most of your data. Sometimes this type of problem occurs due to weak signals, even if you have the whole data pack. So lastly, you need a strong internet base to use YouTube.

To fix this problem, refreshing the page is considered the fastest way to overcome the problem. To refresh the page on the PC, either you can press the ‘Ctrl+Shift+r’ button on the keyboard, or you can click the reload button. You can get the reload button from the top left side of the screen between the ‘Home’ icon and the ‘Back’, ‘Next’ icon. Often it takes just as soon as the page is reloaded for the comments to flow back to the page.
