Hey @engineer_comp_geek !

> It’s a known ‘feature’ that when a post has one reply immediately following it, the reply doesn’t show the ‘replying to’ symbol (in the top right corner). This has often led to confusion about whether the reply actually is a reply to the previous post, or is a reply to the original post. This thread from the Discourse Meta site appears to show how this can be cured :- Maybe this should be in Site Feedback… No doubt i’ll find out soon !
