Why does lemmy have it, so any link takes you off the page instead of opening in a new tab or window?
It is a simple line of code and the entire site does this or add target="_blank" to every hyperlink, and it will do the same thing. It sucks that you have to right-click every link to open in a new tab or window and it is such a simple fix.

Middle click (or command-click on Mac) will also open in a new tab in basically every browser.
Middle click works on a Mac too if you have a pointing device with one. My Logitech trackball does, but you have to push down the scroll wheel, so I never think about it.
Most mice have a middle click, it's pushing down the scroll wheel, this works on Windows, macOS and (most) Linuxes alike.
