Why doesn't gransnet have the option of replying to a specific comment on a thread? It's very frustrating.
Also, how do I tag a person using the @....? It's not working for me. Thanks.

I don’t think you can tag a person using @

On the desktop site it says you can, immediately below the box where you write your post. I've never understood what it means either. Does it generate a PM to that person or does it just highlight their name?

Does it reply to their last post directly and if so does it appear immediately underneath it, in which case who would see it?

It just references the person I think. I normally use jacky to refer to someone else's post.
