Overview

Restores consistent ctrl+click, shift+click, cmd+click and middle-click behaviour when clicking links.

The default behaviour of ctrl+click, shift+click, cmd+click (on macOS) and middle-click when clicking on links is to open the link in a new tab or new window. This behaviour is sometimes broken by careless developers. This add-on restores the default behaviour, ensuring the modifier keys always cause links to open in a new tab.

THANK YOU!!! Now I have a weapon against incompetent so-called developers who would usurp MY browser's functionality.

This used to work well, until the last Chrome update, v. 121.0.6167.86. Now, Link Fixer somehow DISABLES every ctrl+click on every site. It even disables the "Open link in new tab" feature of Vimium. As soon as I make Link Fixer inactive, things are back to normal. Please fix this.

THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU! I really hate when devs override the background open behavior. Your extension neatly fixes this pain point.
