How to get a comment link???

Highlight the text of the comment and inspect element (Right click + inspect or F12)

As you can see, ‘data-comment-id=“(id)”’ is what you are looking for.
all you need to do is add #comments-(ID) and you have the comment URL.

This feature currently does not exist without using Inspect Element

Try getting access to a computer and using the thing Zydrolic mentioned

These are instructions for Chrome:
If you're using a PC or a Mac, press Ctrl+Shift+J or Cmd+Opt+J OR right-click anywhere on the page and click Inspect.

Then click this little button in the top left corner of the window:


Click just below the profile picture on the comment you want to link, it should look like this:


If you look back in the Inspect window, you should see the div with the comment highlighted:


Copy the id (in this case, “comments-365687583”) and attach it to the end of the project URL with a # in front of it. So in this case, it would look like this:
https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/855445766/#comments-365687583
