Up until now, if I search using the Wikipedia field on the menu bar, it opened in a new tab, just like using Startpage does. I've just upgraded to Fedora 43 and Firefox 146.0 (64 bit) and it's stopped doing that, although Startpage still does. How can I get that functionality back?

I looked through my old questions and found that I'd had the same trouble over 2 years ago. The answer was/is to go to about:config and change browser.search.openintab from false to true. Consider this closed.
