On issue/improvement threads such as this one, you can choose to sort either by votes (the default) or by date.

When responding to a notification of a new post (e.g. from the new content page) you'll be taken to the last page of a thread.  That page often won't have the new comment(s) on it, as they'll probably still be voted 0 and the last page will be full of the negatively voted posts.  When you click to sort by date, you'll be redirected to the first page, so additionally need to click again to the last page, which feels unnecessary.

For my purposes, you could either make sort by date the default, or somehow fix it so that it remembers which page you were on when you resort the comments.  Or I could just get used to it; it is only one extra reload.
