Proper Links Firefox

Proper Links

For those fed up with unpredictable link behavior. Proper Links ensures links always open in a new tab, makes them easier to spot on the page, and keeps your browsing private. As simple as that.

Features & Capabilities

Proper Links is a small tool designed for one thing: making links behave the way you expect them to.

If you're tired of hunting for links on a messy page or never knowing if a click will take you away from your current tab, this extension is for you.

What it does:

  • Predictable behavior: Forces links to always open in a new tab, so you never lose your place.
  • Better visibility: Makes links more noticeable on the page, helping you find what you're looking for without the squinting.
  • Privacy-conscious: Cleans up links by removing unnecessary tracking clutter. It doesn't track you, doesn't call home, and only touches the links you interact with.
No fancy promises, no complex settings. Just proper links for a better browsing flow.

Is Proper Links Safe?

Risk impact
Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

Proper Links requires a few sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.

Risk likelihood
Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Firefox add-on may turn malicious.
