Suggestion. Could we move REPLY button to the left hand side and make it bigger than the other buttons. Or even place it over the other buttons (probably better but some A/B testing would help). This is the most important action we want to encourage (and little nudges make all the difference).
AI-generated summary
The discussion revolves around making the Reply button more prominent. BernardLunn suggests moving the Reply button to the left-hand side and making it bigger. vinothkannans provides an alternative solution by changing the post menu settings in the admin side to move the button to the left and offers a simple CSS customization to increase the button’s font size. However, vinothkannans also expresses a preference for the current right-hand side position. Alex_P updates the CSS customization method, pointing out that the recommended approach is now to use theme components, and shares a GitHub link to a theme component that allows specifying font size and weight for the Reply button.

You can move reply button to left by changing post menu settings in admin side /admin/site_settings/category/basic.
I don’t think it is better. It easy to me for right hand side. I like current position. Let’s check what others say
And if you want Reply button bigger then you can do using simple css
.widget-button.reply {
font-size: 18px;
font-weight: bold;
}
And add your css customization in admin side /admin/customize/css_html

I think it’s not available anymore. The recommended way now is to add theme components.
Here is my theme component for this. It allows to specify font size and weight.
