Do you use comment permalinks? Do you like how they work? (lemmy.world)

I sometimes open comment permalinks when going through my inbox on the official web UI. I wasn't completely satisfied with how they work so I wanted to rethink permalinks.

Here's what I ended up with for now: https://lemminator.netlify.app/c/lemmyapps/post/3425509/comment/2569266

Lemmy.world's officially supported web UIs:

Some design decisions I made (for better or worse):

  • You can open a permalink by clicking a comment's timestamp. This minimizes UI clutter but trades off discoverability.
  • The permalink page shows the linked comment near the top, skipping all post information except for its title
  • The comment you link to is the one you'll see at the top (not the parent comment)
  • Context is available behind a button

Are permalinks something you use at all? Do you have any opinions on how they should work?
