Which would not be a problem if sites wouldn't make it increasingly impossible to open links in new tabs.
Will clicking the link delete all progress? Better click with the middle mouse button. Now there's another set of possibilities: 1) the linked site opens in a new tab, 2) nothing happens, 3) an empty tab opens, 4) a tab containing a borked site opens, 5) the button is so broken the browser can't even recognise it as interactive UI element and instead turns on autoscrolling.
Yes, please give me hover menus, and when you're at it use links for links. HTML tags aren't just there as suggestions for weird JSX component names.
