Gregory's Server@darius I think the v3 behavior is an elegant compromise, where right-click will get you the original url but left-click will just focus (fwiw I can't see where this applies to profile link clicks, just to timestamps in not-yet-focused posts). I don't like opening a lot of tabs, but seeing people link to posts with unnecessarily prefixed urls has been wigging me out, akin to leaving a bunch of params at the end of a link.

@darius that'd make sense! though the profile link behavior I see on Hometown (web interface, Firefox) already seems to match the v4 behavior you described, minus the "open original page" – that is, any profile link I left-click opens the profile within my instance / same tab. "open original page" would be a nice addition there, since I currently only see a link to orig if there aren't many posts to show. |
@andy I am leaning strongly towards keeping the v3 timestamp behavior and incorporating the v4 profile behavior. that would make it overall more consistent with every other social media site
