Why does this page redirect me to your linkedin page and re-open itself in a new tab when I click anywhere? That's not cool, dude.

This code in /common.js is what does it;

  function handleLinkedInRedirect() {
   const oneWeek = 7 * 24 * 60 * 60 * 1000;
   const lastOpened = localStorage.getItem("linkedInOpened");
   const isHomepage=location.href.match(/https:\/\/BigBalli\.com\/?$/i)
   if (isHomepage && !lastOpened || Date.now() - lastOpened > oneWeek) {
    document.addEventListener("click", function openLinkOnce(event) {
     const target = event.target;
     const url = target.tagName === "A" && target.href ? target.href : location.href;
     window.open(url, "_blank");

     setTimeout(() => {
      location.href = "https://www.linkedin.com/in/giacomoballi/";
     }, 1);

     localStorage.setItem("linkedInOpened", Date.now().toString());
     document.removeEventListener("click", openLinkOnce);
    });
   }
  }
