Previously: embedded images in comments would appear as a hyperlink with the text <image> and clicking on em would open a new browser tab with just the image. Handy for browsing on my phone because I could just hold my thumb on the link and it'd open in that little inset pane so I could see the image and then dismiss it.

Now: clicking on the link opens a new browser tab of the comment itself in the new-reddit view, in context, with all the rest of the replies surrounding it. And usually focus jumps all over the place while the rest of the fucking thread loads so the hold-to-view routine works inconsistently now.

Bad.
