So I got sick of how bad DDG browser is, so I finally switched back to FF and kept DDG just for app tracking blocking. I have uBO added and all set up. The pages are now beautiful. It’s like a whole new internet! However, when I click on links in apps, it doesn’t open directly in FF, some sort of Intermediary browser (run by FF) opens the page with a menu that has the option to “Open in Firefox”. FF is my default browser. Everything is set to not open links in-app. How can I make this stop and the links open directly in FF?
What you are referring to are androids custom tabs. It’s an android feature where an app can request an “in-app” browser window from the systems default browser. The system also allows the app to specify some customizations like the color of the action bar and I think its possible to add some buttons as well.
Firefox supports this feature and many apps give you an option to turn it off, but it’s up to the app opening the links.
Yeah and Firefox is the only browser that doesn’t let you turn it off.
