Opening Forum Links in New Tab

In the old forum days, all links would open in a new tab. That was a terrific feature. Helps users like me keep their place while chasing down other rabbit holes.

I recommend that as a default feature.

Moved from Other Things Gentoo to Gentoo Forums Feedback

Thx for the feedback.

It has been discussed already in The Gentoo Big Forum Upgrade - Discussion. Starting around this post.

At the end, there are downsides for either side of the coin. So we leave it as it is.

You can open links in new tabs with a mouse wheel click.
