When getting a comment it can be difficult to remember the message you're responding too. A feature similar to BaconReaders essentially. Thanks!

If you tap the link icon, it will take you to the post. Above the comment you will see these options. Tap "Show Context".

OP almost got it, what they really want is for it to go to the context view right away.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

That would be a nice feature.

When I click that link, about 95% of the time my next click is context.

Either the link should go straight to context, or the reply notification should show the parent comment being replied to.

Yes, that would be helpful.

It would still be nice if there were a "Show Parent" button as well. If the comment is in a large tree of comments, it can be hard to find which comment it is directly replying to.
