Why in the name of the lord would you block my ability to open links in new tabs (on the main site)
Edit: this site navigation experience is one of the worst i've ever encountered. I'm really interested in looking around but it's so painfully slow.
Edit 2: the new tab is blocked on the main site, not on the blog post
- officeplant 5y agoWhat in lords name kind of browser are you using? (working fine here in chrome/ff)
- davepeck 5y ago(I’m not having trouble with that and I certainly don’t intend to block you; what os/browser are you using?)
- danr4 5y agolinux/chrome, ctrl + click / middle click not working. Edit: on the main site, blog post links work fine
- jimkleiber 5y agoOn main site, macos/ff, cmd + click doesn't open in a new tab either. However, right click, open in new tab does work.
- davepeck 5y agoThanks for the report. Definitely annoying. On the list to fix.
- SilasX 5y ago“I learned it by watching you” where “you” = 90% of the web today, sadly. (That is, unnecessarily and avoidable breaks some links that should be thusly clickable even if some still can be.) How we got to this point, I have no idea.
