The symbol is to warn the user that they are about to click on an external link. Meaning they will leave getmonero for an external website, it's not meant to signal that a new tab will be open.

Either way, i'm ok with #1922, which makes external links open in a new tab.

I saw that pull request #1922 has been closed, maybe I can take care of that.

From what I've read, target="_blank" should be added to all <a /> that lead to sites other than this one (or rather, those to which this style a[href^="https:"]:not([href*="getmonero.org"]) is applied).

The resource files in the _i18n/ directory shouldn't be modified, right?

@FedericoNembrini that would be appreciated, thanks :)

Only the english files should be edited (en folder and en.yml)
