I put this together based on another very similar script (attributed, of course) I found on beehaw that forces external links to open in a new tab. Should work on every Lemmy instance by checking the header. While it uses http*://*/* as the match, it only executes any logic if the isLemmy
check returns true.
Honestly, this has improved my desktop experience significantly, it was killing me before.
Hope it helps, feedback/suggestions/contributions welcome!
Just so you know I’ve been working on adding that functionality into lemmy for the past couple of days, as a user setting.
downloaded and installed! Noice!
Gonna try this out when I get home. Thank you, this has been bothering me.
thanks you ! this should be a native a settings in lemmy.
