Browsing through Lemmy is fun, but leaving the current page when clicking on an image is not, so I would like to know if there is any option to open links in new tab as default πŸ€”

If you’re browsing on a PC, click your mouse wheel to open the image/link/whatever in a new tab.

Yes good workaround 😊

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

Or use Ctrl click

Not yet. It's being worked on.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

Glad to hear that :) Thanks

The latest Lemmy BE 0.18.1-rc9 supports this setting - but right now the front-end just doesn't let you set it yet.

Hopefully the front-end will be updated with it by the final release of 0.18.1!

Okay we have this feature, but we can not activate it πŸ˜‚

LetΒ΄s wait fopr 0.18.1 then

There's several workarounds on desktop browser, right click + context menu, ctrl + left click, middle click. Problem is left click is habitually engraved so I invariably lose my originating page. So yeah, really hoping for a "open all links in new tab" setting to come soon.

Just hold the ctrl key when you click, or command on apple
