I'm sure that's how it worked until recently. By clicking on an author's name and holding down the Cmd key, you could quickly open separate browser tabs filtered by that author. You could also do the same thing using the context menu.

Now, however, you can only do this with the issue title:

This makes it very difficult to moderate issues in popular repositories. Please fix this.

Same regression here, and I use that exact workflow for triage. Until the link comes back, the search view gets you most of the way there:

In the repo's issues view, type author:thatuser into the search box (e.g. https://github.com/OWNER/REPO/issues?q=is:issue+is:open+author:USERNAME). That gives you the author-filtered list, and from there you can Cmd+click the issue titles to open them in tabs. Bookmark it per author you triage often and it's nearly as fast.

From the terminal, gh issue list --author USERNAME --state open -R OWNER/REPO gives you the same list instantly if you prefer that route.

Not as good as the old one-click behavior, but it restores the author-filtered triage workflow. The feedback's logged with the product team via this thread, so hopefully the link gets restored in the new issues list.
