In-reply-to » @prologic I'm a bit confused about how the two different reply icon buttons behave. The speech bubble with a plus doesn't supply a post id tag to the edit field at all, while the double speech (conversation?) icon supplies the id tag of the post you're replying to rather than the original root. Shouldn't both options supply some kind of id tag to the edit field?

To further expand (I just re-explored this myself, I guess I’m used ot it? 🤔)

  • In Timeline view, a Reply will show the (#hash) you’re replying to.
  • In Conversation view, a Reply _will not__ show the (#hash) you’re replying to. It’s implied from the Conversation view.
  • In Conversation view, a Fork will show the (#hash) of the Twt you’re replying to and forking.

I guess there’s some subtle differences that we need to take care of in the UI/UX to make things a bit more obvious and clear before we go completely hide them from the interface? 🤔
