Hey, I found a bug with 7TV Nightly.

https://streamable.com/61kjls

When the extension is enabled, links in Kick chat open in the same tab instead of a new tab. This replaces the live stream and breaks the expected behavior.

I tested this in incognito mode and by disabling all extensions. The issue only happens when 7TV Nightly is active. When I disable it, links open in a new tab as expected.

I also recorded a video showing the issue. I send a link in chat, then left click it, and it opens in the same tab instead of a new one.

Steps to reproduce:
Enable 7TV Nightly
Open a stream on Kick.com
Click a chat link with left click
The link opens in the same tab instead of a new tab

Looks like the extension is overriding the default click behavior.
