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.

      It does not. There is nothing on lemmy’s link to force link to open in the same tab. Your browser can do whatever it wants.

      Maybe your confusing the behavior that a lot of site decided to implement as default (open in new tab) with a browser setting.

          Dang I was so angry at people claiming the opposite it kinda blinded me into thinking you meant it the other way around. Sorry.

      That they are allowed/capable to, is beyound me. That starts with font size and ends with viewport-width.
