Linking to replies from inbox isn’t working and I’d ask this be given some priority.
Bug description:
- Get a reply to a comment
- View your inbox, see that reply
- Wonder what your comment was again, and what they are replying to…
- Tap their reply
Expect: go to the reply, in context, in the thread, ideally with your comment that they are replying to shown also (wefwef currently does this)
Actual: go to thread, but neither the reply nor your comment are shown - you have to scroll the entire thread and find them
Why a priority? Because this directly impedes back and forth conversation, which is the whole mode of Lemmy.
Appreciate the work. Thanks for hearing this feedback.
It would also be nice to have a show thread or load context button or something. There’s a way to load all comments, but not the thread you’ve been replied to in. That makes responding inconvenient as well. If that’s what you were talking about then I agree, but just in case I wanted to throw that out there.
The devs are working on rewriting their state management, so this probably won’t be updated any time soon, but it’s a good idea to have.
