The default browser behavior when I click on a link on a page is to open a pop up window in the current tab. In these cases I'm clicking a link on the pg to my social media account in order to publish a new post linking to my own content.

The new unwanted behavior on clicking the link is for it to open my social media account in a new tab. I want clicking that link to open a pop up of my social media account in the current tab. Is there any about:config setting controlling this, which I can change?

Added info: I don't want every link I click on to open in the current tab. I only want social media links to open as pop ups in the current tab.

Here is a page of a post and you can see the social media icons. If you click on one, the former behavior was to open a pop up window for my account on that platform. But now it opens my account in a new tab.
