Bring back Comment numbers

The newly-introduced (as of today Jan 5, 2022) Comments features seem to have dropped ID number from each Comment. Please bring it back. When collaborating in real-time over Zoom w multiple designers/developers/product folks (multiple times a day!) this now makes it very difficult to describe WHICH comment the team should be focused on.

Before today’s change, the leader of the disussion would simply tell everyone that she’s talking about Comment #25 (for example). Now there’s a new layer of complication in getting people to understand which Comment you’re actually talking about, since they no longer have unique numbers.

Same issue, I agree!

I’m not going to try to understand why the comment numbers were removed, but I would like them back as quickly as possible. My notes on paper, which refer to comments by number, suddenly make no sense.

100% agree! I used to keep comments unresolved if they are some notes or clarification. And I used to make a list of comments that need to be resolved if they are tasks or amendments. So that was my personal prioritized task list that’s no longer available 😢

Absolutely agree! Comment numbers are extremely helpful.

Before this last update I could see an automatic sequential number assigned to each of my comments, but now I can’t find it. Any help on how can I see those numbers again?

It really helped me to organice my team, I would assign each of them a set of comments (resolve comments from 10 to 25)

I reference the comments in Jira and I need an ID number to do so. Without that it takes the team twice as long to navigate our vast figma file.
