So now its 2021, and STILL the modern mega menu interface does not give us the option of "open in new window"

Come on Microsoft, this is fundamental UX stuff, you should know better.

This should be an option in Quick Links, as it is in standard links.

This feature really needs to be enabled. Open link in a new tab has been a best practice since the inception of the internet(target = _blank). SharePoint has many great features, but not bridging this gap is detrimental to the adoption of SharePoint.

Specially for the "Quick Links" web part. But the option to open links in a different tab should be able to any kind of link. Also for the links in the top/left menu.

This is such a basic feature. I don't understand why it's not available. I have users requesting I make our Hub site links open in new tabs. Please make this happen,

Hi! The ability to open links in a new tab will help minimize confusion when employees attempt to navigate back to the original SP page.

Can you please enable this property? I hate it when I lose the focus on my Home (Intranet) page.
