With an account, you can revise, criticize, and comment on ideas.Discussions can branch out indefinitely. Zoom out for the bird’s-eye view.
The more ideas there are in a discussion, the further the form for top-level ideas is pushed down. Then people don’t know how to submit a new idea and comment on an existing one instead, even if it’s unrelated, as happened with #448. So I need to make this clearer.
The way IG solves this is by rendering the form in a fixed position. It’s still on the bottom but always remains visible.
Facebook does it this way, too.
Reddit is a bit different because they have multiple subreddits/communities, but each community has top-level posts which people can then comment on. They have a completely separate page/UI for top-level posts. And then directly underneath a top-level post, there’s a textarea saying “Join the conversation”.
