Using Thoth...

I have noticed that if I reply to a post but change the subject title
slightly, my reply does not appear in the same thread but separately?

Is this normal? How can I keep it in the same thread only with the
changed subject line? (I think that's how it used to be in trn/slrn but
I am no sure, it was a while ago.)

Does Thoth have a preferences setting to "thread by reference"?

It does and that's what mine is set to.

If it's set to thread by reference, the subject should make no
difference.

I understand. Does that mean that any successive responses to the
newly-changed subject, continues to embed inside the older subject?

Thank you and have a nice day.
