Tabs open in wrong window?

Hi all,

Little issue with Firefox that isn't a glitch, but it's something that annoys me and I am curious if I can fix it!

I have two monitors....a 22" monitor and a 7" mini-monitor. The large monitor is my main for everything and I use the little one for chat windows and watching Youtube as I work, etc.

I usually have a chat window from a certain website open on my mini monitor and all my other tabs open on my main monitor in Firefox, but I've noticed that if I click a link in Discord, or in an email in Thunderbird, etc, the link opens in the window on my second mini monitor and I then have to move it to my main monitor....is there any way to make a open window the 'default' window in Firefox so that clicking a link would open that link in a tab on my main monitor instead...?

Thanks!
