Ask HN: Shift+Click Broken For Anyone Else?

Does anyone else use Shift+Click? [0] If so, has it been working for you recently?

For about the pst week, all I get is one of those irritating "Oops, something went wrong!.." error messages, when I try and view an image. The site itself is still up and running. Their Twitter account is full of tumbleweed, so no news there.

Plan B, there's also the http://imgops.com/ bookmarklet

I don't think they serve the same purpose. With Shift+Click, I can [usually!] just hold down Shift and click on an image on a webpage to open the original in a new tab without having to dive through the source code

It's really handy for those times when websites don't think to have a "Click for full size..." option on an image which is too small to see what's going on.
