I don’t know if it’s a place for this, but at some point it became impossible to open an article in new tab from Chrome on IPhone - clicking on article title from “all posts” just opens the article. Really ruins my LW reading experience. Couldn’t quickly find a way to send this feedback to a right place either, so I guess this is a quick take now.
In general, Intercom is the best place to send us feedback like this, though we're moderately likely to notice a top-level shortform comment. Will look into it; sounds like it could very well be a bug. Thanks for flagging it.
This is a bug and we're looking into it. It appears to be specific to Safari on iOS (Chrome on iOS is a Safari skin); it doesn't affect desktop browsers, Android/Chrome, or Android/Firefox, which is why we didn't notice earlier. This most likely started with a change on desktop where clicking on a post (without modifiers) opens when you press the mouse button, rather than when you release it.
2May I ask whether there is anything planned on fixing this rendering/loading bug which occurs with Firefox? It affects unread/uncached posts opened in a background tab.
