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.

As far as I can tell, there is no Javascript override in the Lemmy code for links. It will follow standard browser behaviour for post links. Whatever Firefox config settings you’ve found don’t always seem to apply, it seems.
In the main branch of lemmy-ui there is actually a setting to open links in new tabs (by explicitly setting target to _blank on anchors), but that’s not in any release version (yet). It’s likely thst the next version (be that 0.18.5 or 0.19) will contain this setting.
