it just doesn't work

Doesn't work for Deliveroo links.
(Somehow Deliveroo links for restaurants override the usual open link in new tab behavior, though I can still right-click on the link and select "Open Link in New Tab" to force it to open in new tab. This was why I was looking for some add-on such as this, but unfortunately this add-on did not work.)
Also, this add-on doesn't work for bookmarks.
