In settings, I’ve checked ‘open links in new tab’, but it doesn’t work. Is there anything I can do to fix it?

    If you aren’t able to fix this, another option is to use an alternative front-end. I booted into Windows and couldn’t get it to work properly but I tried two front-ends – photon and tesseract – and both opened external links properly in new tabs.

      Thanks, but I’m afraid you’re talking over my head now… I haven’t a clue what any that means, sorry.

        Sorry! It’s actually pretty simple. There are different interfaces you can use (like Reddit vs old Reddit). You can find the links on the instance sidebar.

        These are the two I mentioned:

        https://photon.lemmy.ca/
        https://tess.lemmy.ca/

        Same account but just a different look and feel (and sometimes a few extra features). You can switch between them by just using the different urls.
