At first I thought it was going to be some kind of solution to force all linux apps to adhere to the XDG Base Directory Specification, until I realized this related to a different specification altogether (XDG MIME Applications specification).

Making home read-only can get there, and I can't find the project that forced using XDG paths. I think it used LD_PRELOAD or somesuch trick.

Strange. Middle-clicking the link opens a HackerNews frontpage, but copypasting into a new tab shows the article. Presumably the server shoos away referer links? To reduce load maybe somehow? Or maybe something's weird in my own configuration idk.

They explicitly check if the referrer is hackernews and do that.

I had the same issue as you. Had to copy and paste the link.
