Continuing the discussion from [Linked replies showing up again so you have to read them twice - can this be addressed?](https://meta.discourse.org/t/linked-replies-showing-up-again-so-you-have-to-read-them-twice-can-this-be-addressed/29947):

Sorry for this noob question. I have searched this meta forum for quite a while but still couldn’t figure out how could I trigger the “linked reply” view? Could anyone please tell me. Thanks.
