FF as the default browser. is it possible to set such that when I open links on other apps, firefox launches a private window for those links?
there seems a similar option but it has a side effect, FF normal launch also becomes private (incognito).
There is an extension that can make externally opened links to open in temporary containers.
Not quite what you want but could work, depending on what’s your workflow and what you’re trying to achieve.
There’s also a software that acts like a browser and handles links, but instead of opening them, it shows you a list of browser’s you have installed and you can choose which one to use. It also has an option to open said links in private windows (incognito) instead of normal windows.
Again, probably not the solution you wanted, but works for me.
Of you like any of the two solutions I listed above, let me know, I’ll send you the links.
hi. thanks and I would like to know about those solutions if you don’t mind.
On what operating system are you?
On Android, there should be a setting for it.
On a desktop OS, you can probably add--private-windowas an argument into the launcher.
Don’t know what the situation is on iOS…I am on android and tried the setting already. hence the post.
thanks for the PC tip though.
On android, I have “open links in a private tab” turned on. When I open the app, it launches normally and if I open a link from a normal tab, the link opens in a normal tab as well.
I’m on android but the app launches on private window. peculiar.
