Opens new tab after the active tab, instead of last position.
Open New Tab After Current Tab - Edge Add-on
Open New Tab After Current Tab is an Edge add-on developed to make your browsing experience more smooth and efficient. When activated, any new tab initiated will open directly after the current active tab instead of at the last position. This can be done using a keyboard shortcut (⌘ Cmd+T) or by clicking the 'plus' button on your browser. The add-on is intended to minimize scrolling and aid in keeping related tabs in close proximity.

Sometimes force the "ctrl+click" opened tab into foreground (it should go to background). Under Edge with Vertical Tabs, the SOLELY ONE on the market that doesn't scroll into bottom when opening new tabs, including Chrome Store.

This is the add-on I wanted. Even when you open too many tabs that one screen could not display, this add-on still can highlight the new opened tab in the top or left of the tab bar.

Well, it does always open a tab to the right, but sometimes the new tab is in focus, and sometimes not. I just want the tab to be created but not be in focus, it's very annoying having the new page just pop up.
