    Hello michaelhachen! 👋

    Thanks for reaching out!

That being said, I can see how it would be useful to be able to choose to open a link in a certain browser (or in a Private window in a certain browser). While I can't make any promises, I've filed a feature request on your behalf and the team will consider adding such a feature in the future. 

    For the time being, there are some third-party apps that allow you to choose which browser opens when clicking on a link. One of my colleagues posted a screen recording of one option for the Mac here.
