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.

      Laptops don’t have middle clicks.

      Everyone knows the various workarounds. You don’t need to post them. This thread is about a problem that ought not to exist.

      Or Ctrl+Click to open in a new tab in the background, or Ctrl+Shift+Click to open in a new tab and switch to it. Regardless, I agree with OP that this should be the default.
