Links won't open in new tab. (lemmy.ca)

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

ETA Someone suggested I try a different interface, and turns out it works fine in alex.lemmy.ca, just not lemmy.ca. So problem is at least kind of solved! Thanks so much everyone for taking the time to help!

I use Chrome, but tried it with Edge and it still didn't work. Someone suggested I try a different user interface, and turns out it works fine on alex.lemmy.ca, just not on lemmy.ca. Problem now is, my email notifications bring me to lemmy.ca and there's no way to change that. So I have to either settle for one problem, or constantly be using two interfaces. But at least they aren't major problems.

yeah, lemmy is still rough around the edges a bit. but it's always improving.

still weird that doesn't work for you. only other thing I can think of is to try a hard refresh, and if that doesn't work, logging out and back in.

but yeah, some of the other interfaces are pretty nice too.

Thanks, I'll try your suggestions. But even if it doesn't work, it's not nearly a big enough problem that I would leave and go back to you know where :p I'm starting to get used to lemmy and enjoying it! And it's CANADIAN :) Thanks for taking the time, appreciate it!
