[feature request] add option to open images in background tab
(title) Hi, it would be awesome if there was an option to make the images open in a background tab.
Thank you for the request.
It makes sense. First of all, if you are using on Firefox, middle click or Ctrl + click will meet your needs. See #22.
For the other browsers, I'd rather not add configuration to this extension in order to keep it simple and less permissions. I'm considering changing the behavior to open images in a single tab instead of opening them in different tabs. This may meet your needs.
I'm using Brave (Chromium-based), so Ctrl + click (expectedly) doesn't work. I get your point about permissions. It's just that I always find tabs opening and stealing focus rather detrimental to my workflow and going against my expectations of surfing behavior. Guess I have to live with it then...
I just noticed that Chrome's default "Open image in new tab" opens an image in a background tab. The extension should follow this behavior. Reopening.
The fix may be a little late.
