2. Markdown & Code Syntax Highlighting: Readers can post formatted code snippets, terminal logs, and clickable links directly in comments.
3. Likes & Reactions: Developers can upvote helpful comments or insightful clarifications.
4. Accepted Answer Distinction: The article author or moderators can mark a specific comment as the Accepted Answer (markAcceptedAnswer), pinning it to the top with a verified solution badge.
