The 'Open Links to subreddits in a New Tab' & 'Open Posts in New Tab' are feature requests I made a while back for the Old New UI, but as we all know sadly the Old New UI has been terminated. :/

Could we please have: 'Open Links to subreddits in a New Tab' & 'Open Posts in New Tab' back for the New New UI as well?

I know 'Open Posts in New Tab' can be enabled officially within Reddit Settings itself, but I still think your implementation of 'Open Posts in New Tab' is important to keep inside the 'Reddit Enhancer' add-on as an option because with your version of 'Open Posts in New Tab' I can choose to keep the feature enabled using the Reddit website with the 'Reddit Enhancer' add-on from one web browser, while keeping the feature disabled in the Reddit website with the 'Reddit Enhancer' add-on from another web browser. This offers great flexibility.

I like to keep 'Open Posts in New Tab' enabled using Firefox for the Reddit website, but disabled using Microsoft Edge for the Reddit PWA.

With the default built-in feature of 'Open Links To Posts In New Tab' in reddit.com/settings/feed - the setting, once enabled, is obviously tied to your actual Reddit account profile meaning it is universally triggered globally on all web browsers you use the Reddit website. This is quite annoying IMO.

I have found a workaround by running a custom AI generated script via Tampermonky which enables 'Open Links to subreddits in a New Tab' & 'Open Posts in New Tab' functionality on the New New UI, but it's not quite as good as your implantation that you had on the Old New UI, because the AI generated script I am using does not open all links, like the links/subreddits found within the sidebar, or 'View Profile' within the 'Profile Menu', in a new tab. So I'll keep this open.
