> that the site is almost unusable.

The site is perfectly usable. More than usable, even, because I get RES-style zooming for free, amongst other things.

You can right-click save normally already - just right-click and save. If you want the browser zoom tools, hit the "View in Browser" button or right-click and open in new tab

Both of which do not work. I can not right-click "view in new tab" or right-click "save as".
Works fine for me. Make sure your browser is functioning properly.

This website works in every browser I've used, and I've never heard of any problem even remotely close to what you say you're running into.

Browser works fine, it only is an issue with his site. Firefox 40.
Nobody else has been able to reproduce it, and you haven't given enough information on what you're doing or what you've tried. Have you tried different machines? Different browsers? Have you tried pressing the various buttons in the UI? What kind of machine do you have? Do you have a very small amount of RAM? Et cetera.

You might say your browser works fine, but I'd put my money on something there being the issue.

I tried 2 different machines, running two different versions of linux, tried Firefox, Firefox Aurora and Firefox nightly, all with clean profiles.

Neither "Save as" nor "View in new tab" work.

I said so on the github issue, too

I saw you tried different versions on 2 different machines -- it certainly suggests something related to your setup: I can zoom, open in new tab, save as, etc on Firefox 41 on Ubuntu 14.04.

Do you have running app for mouse gestures? That's the only thing I can think of that makes sense in your scenario. Try holding the right click for a few seconds, see if the context menu appears.

The context menu appears, but if I click on "Save as" or "View Image", nothing happens. "Image Info" does work, though.
