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.

    I don’t really agree with this, though. I’m all about control or what have you, but I don’t feel that I’m in less control if I cannot leave Lemmy when clicking a link. I can’t see any flow where this is expected behavior other than the principle of not setting a target.
