Twitter t.co links don't load directly in new tab #628

Description

Links posted in tweets become t.co short links. On tap of link and if fulguris is chosen, it fills the t.co link in current tab and expects user to hit enter key which it then loads in new tab.

This behaviour is not seen for other links for example from bluesky app where links are not shortened. For this case the new link intent is directly launched in new tab.

Environment

  • Device: [e.g. F(x)tec Pro¹ - QX1000]
  • OS: [e.g. Android 9]
  • Version: [e.g. 1.1.3]

To reproduce

  1. Install from f-droid. Default settings.
  2. Install Twitter PWA or app and click on a link in a tweet and choose fulguris
  3. Observe t.co link fills current tab address bar and waits for user to click enter key
  4. On tap of enter key in soft keyboard, it loads in a new tab

Expected behaviour

Browser should directly launch incoming links in a new tab and shouldn't wait for user input (enter key)
For comparison, repeat same steps with bluesky app or any other app.
