Key shortcut to force opening link in the same tab?
Is there any specific key shortcut to open any link in the same tab (even if the website specifies it should be opened in a new tab/window)? Like Ctrl+Mouse click forces every link to be opened in a new tab and Shift+Mouse click - new window.
I have already seen this question: https://support.mozilla.org/pl/questions/970999 but I'd like to be able to choose manually every time whether I want to open the link in the same tab or not.

HI the.real.nps, Thank you for your question. I understand that you would like the option to choose whether or not to open a url in a new tab or the same tab each time a link is clicked.
Currently this can be done by right clicking on a link. Each of these options are provided.
I see only 3 options: - "Open link in new tab" - "Open link in new window" - "Open link in incognito window"
There's no "Open link in the current tab" or anything similar.
We had a similar thread last September, which also wasn't solved to the poster's satisfaction: https://support.mozilla.org/questions/1018813
See:

- 1: current tab; 2:new window; 3:new tab;
For links opened via JavaScript you can look at this pref:
