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.

    Ah yes, adding ?p=2 to the link does work:

    https://kbin.social/m/reddit@lemmy.world/t/152720/r-BotDefense-is-shutting-down-I-hope-Reddit-likes-spam-and?p=2#entry-comment-612642

    however this issue is not limited to notifications, because if you use “share url” from the comment itself, it will give you the link without the pagination.
