Github outdated diff functionality

Did the "outdated diff functionality" get removed or are we just using comments wrong now?

Whenever a updated a review comment I no longer get the "outdated diff functionality". This makes it extremely hard to keep track of what was updated when working with a team.

Cheers.

Edit

Received an e-mail from github that explained the functionality is no longer active and that they are working on bringing it back again.
