I accidentally clicked on a link that opened a new tab and then closed right away. I've checked my files, and I don't see anything unusual. Does this mean I'm okay, or should I be worried?

Honestly, you might be fine. Sometimes browsers close tabs if they sense something is off, especially with ads or pop-ups. If you're really worried, I suggest running a malware scan with Malwarebytes or HitmanPro just to be safe. And if you still feel uneasy afterward, a fresh OS reinstall can give you peace of mind.
Thanks for the advice, I ran Malwarebytes right after and didn't find anything.
