It is a simple line of code and the entire site does this or add target=“_blank” to every hyperlink, and it will do the same thing. It sucks that you have to right-click every link to open in a new tab or window and it is such a simple fix.

    A simple checkbox in the settings allows users to choose which option they’d prefer.

      “just add a setting” is generally bad software design. If you have a million toggle switches, it makes it difficult to test the various combinations.

      Sometimes an option is useful enough that it’s worth adding to settings. I don’t think this is one of them. Just use middle click or Ctrl+click or back arrow.
