Forcing opening in a new tab can go die in a fire. I don't understand how browsers even support that. It's so abused.
If I wanted it in a new tab, I'll bloody well open it in a new tab myself. The feature is right there. Don't overrule the user. That should be illegal.
Now instead i click, have to go back, close the old tab, and history is wiped. Thanks for nothing.
- meribold 2y agoI tried figuring out whether Firefox can be made to never open a new tab in response to a normal left click on a link. The advice I found is setting `browser.link.open_newwindow.restriction` to 0 and `browser.link.open_newwindow` to 1 in about:config [1]. But it works a little too well: clicking on a link outside of Firefox also no longer opens a new tab.
