I'm still not sure how to do it, to be honest. But at least commenting is easy!

Edit: I agree with the people saying the onboarding is too complex. It's not because people are dumb. If a whole bunch of people all have the same problem with a system, it's because it's poorly designed for humans. Even though people who are used to the system or good at learning new systems in specific contexts can easily forget that the skills they have are learned skills, similar to how gamers forget that handling a controller is a learned skill and not just as automatic as walking for everybody out the gate.
