en This used to work well, until the last Chrome update, v. 121.0.6167.86. Now, Link Fixer somehow DISABLES every ctrl+click on every site. It even disables the "Open link in new tab" feature of Vimium. As soon as I make Link Fixer inactive, things are back to normal. Please fix this.

en THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU! I really hate when devs override the background open behavior. Your extension neatly fixes this pain point.
