  4. Note from 31 May 2024

    Please, please, please… check on the sites you build that using Command #fn1" id="fnref1">[1] + click #fn2" id="fnref2">[2] always opens links in a new tab, even if you used some JavaScript to build a dumb Web link!

    I see too many sites where Cmd + click opens the link in the current tab, so when browsing a list of links, if I want to open them in new tabs (for example to compare products), I need to use right click and then select the "open link in a new tab" option, for each link.

    Really cumbersome! 😡

    1. Command on a Mac, but I guess Control on Windows and Linux? #fnref1" class="footnote-backref">↩︎

    2. Check the click both with mouses and trackpads! #fnref2" class="footnote-backref">↩︎

    It's pretty annoying to see the same toot repeatedly on #Mastodon because everyone is boosting it, even if it's legitimately awesome.

    Currently, a boost of a toot is only posted if at least 40 other toots have been posted since the previous boost of the same toot.

    There is a GitHub issue asking to allow the user to change this number, or set a duration instead:

    Navigation doesn’t have to be hidden behind a "Menu"-button. If it matters, we need to show it, and do so prominently. Some items are more important or more frequently used, so they might deserve a little bit more spotlight in your navigation.

    In addition to prominent navigation options @vitalyf shows in his thread, I really like the horizontal overflow scrolling navigation, enhanced with @LeaVerou's scrolling shadows.

    If iTunesMusic plays in the background, there is a media control key in the Touch Bar.

    This key shows the media controls.

    When Music is in focus, there is another Touch Bar.

    The control keys and the progress bar are inverted! 🤦‍♂️
