Did OpenAI just secretly kill “Open in New Tab” in an A/B test? Sidebar right-click is completely broken on my specific account.

A user on reddit.com reported that OpenAI might have secretly removed the "Open in New Tab" functionality in an A/B test, as the sidebar right-click is broken on their specific account. This change is significantly impacting their workflow, as they typically keep 4-5 ChatGPT conversations open in separate tabs. They are curious how other users who work with multiple ChatGPT tabs are managing this issue.

This report is the first to suggest OpenAI is A/B testing the removal of a core browser function, unlike typical UI experiments.
