So i stumbled upon the issue that if you post a link to a branch somewhere, and merge the branch afterwards, the link still points to the merged branch. This might cause issues as its not really clear to the developers if the branch is still up2date or not. 

Maybe there is a possibility to somehow show that this specific branch has been merged ? or even link directly to the main branch?

It’s super disruptive when you send a link for a specific review and the dev/stakeholder ends up on the Main file wondering where the changes are. One thing that sometimes helps (as a messy workaround) is making sure the person is actually added to the Branch specifically, but Figma really should respect the direct URL regardless of the file's 'parent' status.
