Append text fields not displayed properly in modern SP list view
I recommend you to provide feedback about this issue using the tools provided by Microsoft in the new user experience (Feedback button). By the way, adding LincolnDeMaris to the conversation

LincolnDeMaris has anyone else reported similar concerns? Are there any indications as to where this is on the list to be addressed?

Thanks, did this. I'm concerned; however, b/c this is existing functionality that is effectively now broken.

My experience is similar, though slightly different. With the new list experience the Append changes to existing text option has no effect when using the edit form. To a user, it looks like a textbox to update, and none of the previous entries are shown. The result for my users is lots of confusion, and the isolated comments that I usually expect are mixed up with the previous commenter's text.

For me at least, this all seems to have been temporary (a couple of weeks). The new list experience and Append change to existing text option now works as it did in the classic interface. Thanks MS.
