Hey Nuno, this is something that we try to do as a Community Management team but ultimately it is controlled by the poster. We do encourage this behavior though.

Ok, but is possible to have it by default? It could be a better experience to external sites and the user remains on Techcommunity after see the other site.

Thanks for the idea, I can understand why you're asking for it by default but it feels to me more like a community user education piece than a technical solution is required. 

I am not opposed to creating a technical sledgehammer to crack a technically small nut but I would be interested in hearing what the rest of the community think about this.

Please do socialize your idea and get some more community members to share their view.

Closing this as LOE is very high, instead we will work with teams to ensure that all content generated by product teams behaves this way be default.

All links posted by users should already be behaving this way.
