por Usuário 12708137 do Firefox, há 8 anosHi, great addon, and great idea, but why not the option to open link in a new background tab? (sorry for my english, I hope you understand) Cheers
¿Por qué no tiene opción de abrir links en segundo plano?

Resposta do desenvolvedor
publicado há 8 anosHi,
I thought about your suggestion and found out that there are two ways for this -
a. "Bad" Workaround - Overriding a browser configuration in about:config - You can change the browser behavior to open all links which open in a new tab in the background by setting the
"browser.tabs.loadDivertedInBackground" config to true.
More info on - https://stackoverflow.com/q/7386208
b. Using the "tabs" API of webextensions - This would require an almost complete rewrite of the extension and can break a number of websites. I would like to use the tabs API but it will take a long time to iron out all the bugs and release it.
Thanks,

- 2017 review: Works pretty well, except it seems for "stuff.co.nz" where it tends to open links in same tab most of the time, but sometimes does open in a new tab. Confused? So am I! Maybe a Firefox bug involved?

- Avaliado em 1 de 5por Usuário 15310022 do Firefox, há 6 anosThis app "works only when it wants to" is the only way to describe my experience. Firefox 69.0.1 6 bit. It's very disappointing to search duckduckgo and have the link open in the same tab unless I go back and select the link again. This is a waste of time. I'm looking for an app that will work every time and will allow options on how tabs should open. BOTTOM LINE: This app isn't as advertised.

- Avaliado em 4 de 5por John Corliss, há 6 anosWorks pretty well exept on some Mozilla pages, author could explain how to use the extension a little better. Would get higher ratings if (s)he did so.

- Avaliado em 1 de 5por Bob Tomlinson, há 7 anosDidn't work, even when I moved the button for the specified site. Just tooo fiddly. Seems a no-brainer to me that all bookmarks should open in a new tab as standard. Who wants to leave a site you're on to look at another site, maybe for reference. Firefox note. Now I've learned to right click, job done.
