Support bump:

I think that links should always be targeted and I don't think there even needs to be an option to turn it off. I don't see the reason why anyone would need to open a link from a forum post in the same tab. If someone is opening a link from a forum post, they'll probably want to reply to the post after viewing the link.

I don't care that there are “workarounds” like right-click > open_link_in_new_tab : It's so simple to implement target=“_blank” and I think it would just be nicer to use.

If only I were a kumquat…

By the way, i found a way to middle click on laptops (or atleast chrome books)
Just tap 3 fingers on the track pad.
This still would be more convenient than that though, as it is sort of tricky to get the hang of.

For some people which sometimes have a lot of tabs open at the same time (like me), the option to open the link in the same tab could be useful

If you own a shop, think about joining the USS or SCA!

You can also Ctrl+click.

This is a signature. It's a piece of text that appears below every post I write. Click here to learn more, including how to make your own.

Probably-unrelated, maybe still unfinished feature:

Support, it would be easy to add and it would make navigation more efficient (probably not for mobile though)
