Is there any simple way in Firefox Quantum to have a tab opened from a link appear at the end of the tabs, instead of directly after?

There used to be an add-on for this, but FQ can;'t use most of the legacy add-ons.

Go to about:config and click the warning to proceed. Search for browser.tabs.insertRelatedAfterCurrent and double click it to set it to false.

Thanks, Moses. Much appreciated. It's a pity that Quantum, given its storage of legacy add-ons, wasn't programed to find that solution.

Most of what the legacy addons did can be reconfigured via userChrome.css, userContent.css and about:config. However thats oversimplification on my part.
