best ext to open links in a new tab for me,since I use google's chrome in my laptop running linux,no windowze or mucOS
2017-11-11 Dane Stotzer I agree with the other reviews. It works as described, but it is limited. It does not work on all links. When it works it "always" opens a new tab even if you don't want it to. The real problem is that Chrome does not provide a setting to bring new tabs to the top. So many other browsers have this feature. It's a shame.

2013-12-14 Chris Brislawn Installed under OSX Mavericks. This extension does NOT enable the behavior I wanted, which is for browser focus to automatically follow the last link clicked, regardless of whether or not it's opened in a new tab. Instead, it opens EVERY link clicked in a new tab by default, which quickly leads to a huge number of open tabs. I was led to this extension by a Google search, but, while the description of its behavior on the DETAILS tab is accurate, I cannot imagine why anyone would want to enable this particular default behavior. Accordingly, I give it one star for poorly motivated functionality and lack of a compelling use-case.

Just installed and tested it for the first time. It works for me, but I immediately decided I can only give it 3 stars. It should have an option to at least be able to have links always open in a background tab instead of a new tab. Put this toggle in, and I think I'll love it.

What a POS-restarted browser after adding extension and still didn't work and so removed it and came to review-had to readd to chrome just to add this review-totally worth it-I can now remove it again :)

Been waiting for this. Would be nice if you could maybe have certain sites open in same tab. "an exception list" Like banking sites. If i open a new tab with my bank site it logs me out.
