anchor links to comments don't work properly
density@kbin.social to /kbin meta@kbin.social – 1 points – On desktop, I was trying to figure out how to get from the notifications list ( https://kbin.social/settings/notifications ) to the specific comment.
It just links to the top of the thread and I have to ctrl-F for my handle. Which doesn't work easily on long threads or nested comments.
The link in notifications includes an anchor, for example #entry-comment-612642.
If I find the comment and click more > share URL, I get the same anchor link, which also just links to the top of the thread, example: https://kbin.social/m/reddit@lemmy.world/t/152720/r-BotDefense-is-shutting-down-I-hope-Reddit-likes-spam-and#entry-comment-612642
If I click more > copy URL to fediverse, I get a correctly working link on the commenter's home instance: https://discuss.tchncs.de/comment/768070
Edited out an idea for a workaround which actually doesn't work. And edited the title to remove reference to this.
I may be misunderstanding this, but it sounds like you're running up against this bug where notifications don't work if the comment they reference is not on the first page of comments.
