Firefox for Android Every Link Click Makes a Tab

Using 94.1.2 FF Daylight on Android. Everytime a link is clicked a new tab is made, perhaps every new search too. Whatever it is, too many tabs are being generated by my browsing and I spend a lot of time controlling and reducing way too many tabs. And there's no apparent way to just say go to the link in the same tab, not in settings and about:config is disabled in Daylight FF. I like less tabs and just use the back button. It might be my imagination but newer versions of FF seem setup to make more tabs vs older versions? Anyway, I ask for a way in settings to make less tabs. Thanks.

Thanks for the speedy response. Perhaps in the larest FF ver. I'm using it might already be addressed to some degree, anyway it might be good to have some control of this in settings IMHO.
