Greetings from Miami!

When I link any text on Notes to a website and I tap on that text that contains the link, Safari launches automatically opens the linked website.

When I link any text to a website on Pages, it shows me this pop-up (see attached screenshot) and I have to tap on Open Link on this pop-up before Safari launches and opens the linked website.

Is there any setting to bypass this screen and automatically open the link in Safari? This is an extra step that I don't have to deal with in Notes and I wish I could do the same in Pages.

Thanks in advance!

I think there isn't a way to bypass that setting if you are editing a document -- that menu provides necessary options to modify the link. However, if you are just viewing the Pages document, you can try going to three dots in the top corner and then "Reading View". This seems to open the link without extra steps in between.
