Changes:<ul><li>Change 'Translation' to an icon, with hover state and tooltip</li><li>Cap the height of the dropdown and make it scrollable, preventing it from being out of frame on small screen.</li><li>Add English and Korea (for now) to the top for easy access, it would be nice if this eventually shows recently used.</li></ul>

Phase 2 bug bash / brainstorm

Initial explorations

<ul><li>We should group comments by asset to provide more context + continuity for conversations.</li><li>Do we want users to think of comments as separate items? or do we want them to be all part of one conversation? → decided that we want them to think of it as separate, so keeping 5px gap because I think it's important users feel like they can thread / reply to just a single comment.</li><li>Now, I'm debating all the different UIs that make sense... the hover + commenting interaction remains the same:<ul><li>hover will show reactjis and allow users to resolve comment</li><li>click on comment allows user to reply to each comment separately</li><li>click on asset allows user to click into original photo when clicking image</li><li>HOWEVER: image is large enough / aspect ratio is correct so that user does not NEED to click into the image to have all the context to reply.</li></ul></li><li>Also, I know we initially had concerns on having too much empty space when the asset is shown ABOVE comments. I think this is more optimal than fitting it to a narrow comment section. I also think having larger asset size allows people to comment within the tab, without having to click into the asset.</li></ul>
