Quick question: Did clicking on a link in Hubski change? I seem to remember that clicking the title of a post in my feed that linked to an article, would pop the article up in a new tab, and open the Hubski Comments page for that article in the original tab. With this design, I could read the article, close the article tab, and would be immediately reading the comments other Hubskiers wrote about the article.

Recently, I believe this functionality changed, and the Comments page is not automatically opened. After reading the article I have to go back to my feed, and click the little "number of comments" number at the far right of the post title.

This is a small change, but I thought the previous functionality had a particular elegance to it.

Why was this changed?

That shouldn't have changed but if it did, you should be able to toggle it back on in your settings.

Cheers!

You were right. Never knew that was a setting before! But when I looked it at, it was indeed turned off, and when I turned it back on again, it worked as I remembered.

Thanks!

I had to turn that setting back on after the migration, but it's still not doing it.
