I might be missing something here, but does anyone know how to markdown (markup) a hyperlink to open a new window when posting content on steemit? In the old days we’d just add target=_blank after the url and Bob’s your uncle, but that doesn’t seem to work on this platform.
Having links open in the same window as the steemit publication/story, effectively takes users away from the story/article. Ideally, a new window would open with the external links, and leave the underlying steemit post where it is.
That would be much more user friendly, IMHO.
Any programmer types out there know how this can be done, perhaps with javascript?
Many thanks.
I’m out.
