Firefox@lemmy.ml : Any addons or scripts that allow for clicking on Twitter posts to open them in new tabs, or show a right-click context menu item "Open link in new tab"? (lemmy.world)

When I click on a post in a twitter feed it opens it in the same tab when I want to open it in a new tab, and continue scrolling the feed.

The middle mouse button usually opens the link in a new tab.

Im on a laptop though, any ideas?

You can try Ctrl+Click. Depending on the OS settings, it might also work to tap with three fingers on the touchpad.

Windows supports multi-finger touchpad. So if you can scroll with two fingers, you could try clicking with three fingers for a middle button click. If that doesn't work, check your touchpad settings in the windows settings.

So when right clicking that "link" it doesnt show "open in new tab"?

Never used twitter but if it doesnt it is usually javascript, and doesnt open a website but render different content on the same, dynamic one.
