I'm super proud of how I implemented deeply nested comment permalinks in Loops.
It's a bit trickier than say Mastodon, where you just need the parent post context (and maybe children) since we only display comments in the video permalink.
And the UI I designed for this makes it really easy to view the comment and even the parent if applicable.

If you have a fediverse account, you can quote this note from your own instance. Search https://mastodon.social/users/dansup/statuses/115876278291815667 on your instance and quote it. (Note that quoting is not supported in Mastodon.)

They also are ActivityPub objects that expand to the full id ✨
We use snowflake ids, then hashids in permalinks that expand. It's beautifully simple, yet clever.
