I’ve searched the forum but couldn’t find an answer. Is it possible to configure Discourse to paginate posts in the category view and comments in the thread view?
Either natively or through a plugin.
Ideally that would be a user selectable preference.

While it’s not absolutely impossible, there’s no settings or plugins for it yet.
