When clicking the link icon on a message response in your inbox, the comment that person is responding to should show as well.

    Could you clarify, maybe with screenshots? My brain is having trouble visualizing this!

      I think I know what they mean

      So, here’s a recent comment thread I was in: just some silly nonsense

      Here’s what I see when I view that thread after clicking on a message in my inbox. I’m missing the parent comment, which in long threads especially, can be very confusing: where I highlighted in red, iirc, Apollo used to have a button that was like “show context” and it would load in more parents

        Oh, I see! Yes that would be a great feature request and I’ve thought about it in the past. Thanks for the explanation. Can you add this to GitHub if you have time?

          He’s exactly right on the explanation. I’ll get it on Github whenever I get around to booting up my PC
