CTRL + clicking & Other opening new tab functions not working
I am using the web version and since a week i cant middle scrollwheel click anything anymore to open it in a new tab. CTRL + Left mouse click is also quite broken. This really ruins my workflow and m...
Also having this issue, running Firefox 107.0 . Previously, I was able to middle-click folders and they would open in new tabs, which follows the same standard that web browsers have been using for decades.
Now, middle-clicking will go right into the folder, as if I'd left clicked. Instead of a single mouse button to get a tab open, the process is now:
1. right-click folder
2. move mouse up or down to the "Open In" sub menu
3. wait for the popup
4. click "open in new tab"
5. switch back to the tab i was just in, because opening a new tab this way also switches to it, despite my browser being set to *not* switch tabs when I open them
Four more actions and several more seconds added to my workflow, multiplied by however many folders I need to work with. This has already wasted an hour of real time.
Devs, I beg you, revert this change
