I wish there was a notification for replies to comments I made. I feel that some conversations could be continued if such a feature existed.

It kinda went the other way - HN has a calming feature that prevents you from quickly replying to a comment on your comment. That was clearly on purpose.

I actually like the calming feature but what's a bit sad is missing thoughtful replies and only noticing them a day or 2 later when I know the person who left the reply won't see my reply to them. So, I think both could be complimentary, the notification doesn't need to be instant :)
