Make the new pinned tab behaviour for opening links optional

Thanks for raising this issue, I strongly agree! It totally ruins my workflow:

  • I have always 8 tabs open, no more, no less.
  • 6 of them are pinned and the other 2 are on which I’m actually working.
  • The pinned ones (weekly plan, canvas, plan of actual day, etc.) contain the important links and I’m navigating through them to get to the note I want to work on – which always open the 2 unpinned ones (editor + preview of the same note).

I need this, I’m used to it! Maybe there are other uses of Obsidian, but if this works for me and I don’t know why I’m forced to use a different method.

Yes, there should be an option in the settings to get back the old functionality as @alltagsverstand proposed.
