Hi, I am new to Kbin like many, but I have a few questions on usage. So far I've liked it, but I keep getting logged out after a bit of inactivity and it makes me enter my credentials when I decide to comment. Is there a way to make it keep me logged in? I was very used to having reddit be basically perpetually logged in and being able to interact easily without constantly having to enter my credentials.

Second, when I click on links from the various posts, it doesn't open a new tab, and I end up closing the tab when done, and I don't have a tab to return to my Kbin browsing. Is there a setting for all new links to be opened in a new tab? This was also functionality I used with reddit, although I don't know if that was related to RES or reddit itself.

Lastly, speaking of the links, is there a way to make the link on the main page open the actual link to the external source instead of opening the post and comments? I feel like I am having to do extra clicks just to get to the content posted. I am used to viewing the content first, then going to the comments later if I choose to.

Thanks for any info and sorry if any of this has been asked before!

I'm gonna just add an extra question to your post instead of making a new thread:

Is there a way to collapse comment chains? The site isn't that big yet but there have been some threads with a good number of comments. Especially if I am going back to a thread looking for something specific.
