Bubbles dev here, I've heard you loud and clear and follow the discussion closely.

I will change the default behaviour to open links in the same tab like on HN or Lobsters soon. But first the HN visitor wave needs to calm down.

So many comments debating the philosophy around this. I like it when these type of sites open a new tab for me. Is there a way to just code in a toggle between the two link opening types?

		This is the type of thing I have to fight against daily. You already have both action available - left click or middle click. Don't bloat your software with band aids for problems that don't exist - just train your users better.

		Middle-click a link to open a new tab. I can't force a link to open in the same window but I can with new tabs. Sometimes it's easier to follow a link, have a look, and then go back without jumping around tabs.

		I like that in Kagi I can set this as an option. Default, on the same tab (since browsers have options around this), but allow users to select if they want it on a new tab/window.

		You can set a user preference to open in a new tab. The reverse is not true.
