01

Comment on the part you mean.

A whole article can raise a dozen different questions. Start with the paragraph you want to talk about.

02

See what other readers think.

Read the replies, add your own, or leave a reaction when someone says it better than you could.

03

Some thoughts are just for you.

Save a note alongside the passage when it’s something you want to keep for yourself rather than post publicly.

You choose what becomes a comment.

Comments are public. Notes stay in your account. The privacy policy explains how both are stored.
