"New Domain in New Tab" is a Chrome extension that enhances your browsing experience by automatically opening links leading to a new domain in a separate tab. This extension comes with a default set up for ease of use post-installation, but is fully configurable to suit your browsing habits. You can quickly enable or disable the extension for specific domains, and personalize your use with the Whitelist and Blacklist features. The visual indicator, in the form of the extension icon's color, lets you know if the extension is working on your current domain.

This extension works perfectly, in all circumstances.
By default it automatically opens links to external domains in a new tab.
If you do not want this for certain domains, you can add these to a blacklist.
If you only want this for specific domains, you can add these to a whitelist.
Some users have reported that the blacklist feature does not work. But it does. However, note that if the website developer has specified that a link should open in a new window (*), this will still happen, even though the domain was blacklisted in this extension's settings, as is to be expected.
(*) Any link which contains the <target="_blank" attribute'> will open in a new window (or a new tab if your browser is configured that way).
