This is the way that Reddit and Hacker News function. When browsing the feed on those sites I middle click the post and the comments link to open both up in new tabs but on kbin both links open the same page.
yeah it’d be nice to be able to click the link without having to go into the comments section.
IMO, only if we make the comments link take you to the top of the post page and not already scrolled half way through the top comment.
Same thing happens with clicking on a reply notification. Unless it’s not on the first page of comments, then you just have to figure out where it was. We sort of need a “context” button like Reddit had to follow the train of thought that the reply responded to.
@TZUI1hRq only as a setting.
Just my two cents: I prefer the way it is. The Hacker News way always trips me up, especially when switching from Apollo – where post titles link to the post. I realize how bad this is going to sound, but the OP and the comments are what I’m here for. I judge whether the linked content is worth visiting based on the comments, so that’s where I prefer to start.
RIF had it best. Click the thumbnail for the link, and the post title for the other options such as view comments.
This is how Apollo did it too. I miss it.
