Reply to a comment or a Google review

Replies to a comment on a published post. Supported: Instagram, Facebook, Threads, X, and Google Business Profile reviews (platform googlebusiness, commentId = the review id). A Google review takes one reply from the business, so replying again replaces it; replies take up to 4,096 bytes, only work on verified locations, and Google moderates them (status pending until approved). YouTube is not listed yet: its comments need a restricted Google permission (youtube.force-ssl) that is not available to every account.
