Opening links in a new tab (lemmy.ml)

I´m not sure if I´m the only one bugged out with this, but it would be nice to have either by default or an option to open links in a new tab with the regular left click.

At this point I lost count of how many times I opened a link from some news or something I found here and only remembered to come back after closing the tab. I know one could just middle click and be done with it, but other sites cough cough ~~Reddit~~ cough cough got me too used to this behavior and it would be nice to have some option for this.

Same can be done without a mouse using ctrl+click on Windows and Linux (usually), or cmd+click on macOS.

Two-finger tap also works on mobile Safari.
