Stacker news idea @k00b
How about allowing linkable replies? People do sometimes leave very productive replies, I save these by copy and paste & screenshots sometimes. It would be neat if they would e linkable and hence bookmarkabel. Maybe they already are, but there's no UI for it.

If you click on '<num> replies' or the time, it'll take you to the reply link.
I agree though. We need to make that easier and have some ideas.

Right! Cool that it works.
Maybe just giving its own intuitive icon would solve for making it more obvious. Like a little link icon or a tag like this <link>, whatever you think fits best with the rest of the UI.

wind took mine yesterday, but got another one after tipping some posts. Seems like you can get another by tipping certain amount per day, but still experimenting with exactly how you keep from losing your hat.
