I want to say I have seen this before, but can't dig up where. I agree with you that it would be a nice to have. There have been many times when I click an article (forgetting to open in a new tab), read it and think of something great to say, but then get distracted and never post. Even just having a target = "_blank" would be a decent step forward so I don't navigate away from HN.
- Skywing 16y agoI do recall seeing somebody's project over the past few weeks. It did this, pretty much. I can't recall the URL, but it had three or so iframes - one with HN article listing, one with the page destination and another with comments. Personally, it ended up being a worse experience than just using HN as it is. I do agree, though, that target="_blank" would be a very nice addition.
- ZeroMinx 16y agoThen I'd rather that target=_blank was a config option. I personally prefer if I can decide if I want the link to open in the same or a new window, which I can do now.
