Hey @tyfi, thanks for making an instance for Lemmy that works pretty good from Spokane.

I am sure that this place will soon start to get more and more people.

One question I have is, how can I make clicks that take me away from Wirebase open in a new tab/window? Is that just not a thing for the LemmyNet code?

    Hi @thisbenzingring@wirebase.org! No problem - happy that you’re enjoying it!

    I actually hadn’t noticed that particular issue with links - but I’m using mobile most of the time.

    I personally have a habit of holding down CMD when clicking links (on Mac), which always opens them in a new tab (CTRL if you’re on Windows). I’ve developed this habit because of the very issue you’re describing on Lemmy!

    Like @rocket@wirebase.org mentioned – hopefully this is something that the Lemmy developers will iron out soon. I’ll keep an eye for an update with it!

    The only thing I’ve seen for that is a… violentmonkey script. It’s definitely a problem that Lemmy as a whole needs a more reliable way to handle. And coincidental one of my bigger gripes with all the apps out right now. Hopefully it’ll be fixed in due time.
