How do you get links to open in a different monitor when working with dual monitors?

Can you please reply with a way to have new windows open in a different monitor? It only works after spending time randomly clicking/reloading new tabs. I get it to work after spending several minutes randomly clicking the tabs, moving them from different monitors but this is ridiculous. If it works once, there should be a way to get it to work. When I'm loading multiple links at a time, I want them to open on a different monitor. The extension Windows Master is no longer supported, so I'm stuck.

macOS High Sierra, just the standard setup with 2 Mac displays with different programs on each monitor.

Need a program that bridges the 2. Standard default dual is low budget and does not have the tools to do what you want. https://www.google.ca/search?q=software+for+dual+monitor+use&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&client=firefox-b&gfe_rd=cr&dcr=0&ei=P1E4WrGECtODiAOogZ-YAw

I didn't clarify this earlier. I DO get this to work when I right click on a link and select Open Link In New Window. After I get it to work it keeps working all day until the randomness happens and it stop working again. Then I have to manually try getting it to work again. I don't need another program, just need to know what the trick is. Just randomly clicking tabs, reloading them to get it work is too frustrating. There's something that triggers is, I just can't find the answer.
