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.

    So now I need to buy a mouse and sit at a desk in order to use Lemmy?

    C’mon. No other site behaves like this. It needs to be fixed.

      “To own a mouse, one must first buy a mouse.”

      Once you’ve crawled under that hurdle, you buy a hard mouse pad. Mine’s steel covered with a thin layer of plastic. Works great on the arm of a couch or just on a pillow.

      Now you can play first person shooters on the couch! Without the horrors of a controller.

      Navigating the web is easier. Everything is easier! It’s dreamy. Give it a try sometime.

        If I wanted a mouse, I would have a mouse. I do not want a mouse.
