Link Blanker: Open & Manage Links in New Tabs

"Link Blanker" is a convenient Chrome extension designed to enhance your browsing experience. It allows you to open links in new tabs automatically, even in the background, and manage multiple tabs effectively. It's a perfect tool for users who dislike using the browser's 'back' button. You can close cluttered tabs altogether for a more streamlined browsing experience. More details are available at the Link Blanker homepage.

User reviews

chromeのアップデートのためか、リンクの色が変わらなくなってしまったのが残念です。

YouTubeの検索画面で正常に動作しない（元の検索画面も一緒に変わる）のが残念。

とても便利です。｢リンク先が同一ドメインの場合は無効にする｣機能が、ドメインごとに設定できればうれしいです。
