Can we finally get the following features in HN for an UX modern

Question

1. Please make a click either optional in profile settings to open in new tab/window.2. Make replies in-line.---I am tired after a decade of excuses of "you can just XYZ" - NO - the UX is LAME. make the FN link open to a new tab/window. Period.2. Replies are FN broken. Even after submitting a reply, it doesnt return me to the same spot.FFS - You're behind reddit. Just accept certain aspects of their UX that are actually pleasing, and in-line with dense information consumption.Its been several years since I asked this.Get off the darn BOFH/RTFM bucket and update some shit.

> FFS - You're behind redditI don't _think_ HN was ever supposed to be a competitor to reddit, was it? AFAIK this is not a product that YC is earning money from (through via ads or elsewhere).
