It would help if HN would automatically link to previous discussions (next to the title?) if there are any... It seems wasteful having people do it manually

- digianarchist 5y agoThat’s what the “past” button does.
- hffftz 5y agoWhy are there always people linking to previous discussions then? Including dang himself...
- GordonS 5y agoWell, it's certainly handy when using a mobile client that doesn't have a "Past" button, like Materialistic :)
- jtbayly 5y agoBecause the past button doesn't actually do that. lol Edit: Oops. I didn't see there are two "past" buttons. I guess one of them does do that. TIL.
- iqanq 5y agoThey were doing it for you because you didn't know about that button. But now that you do, they will stop doing it.
- hffftz 5y agoWouldn't it be easier to create an automated comment for everyone else?
- Dylan16807 5y agoIt would need to change color when there are past discussions with more than a couple comments, or something. The "if there are any" part is more important than the actual links.
