I have ff set to open everything in private tabs by default, but when i want to login to an account with my password manager i have to open ff, turn private browsing off and then paste the link from the password manager. I was wondering if some sort of syntax existed to tell ff to open it in a standart tab kind of like about:settings or mailto:

    I don’t think that’s possible. But to prevent an XY problem: what do you want to achieve? Maybe it’s enough to simply disable the history, or delete cookies when you exit a page, or use Firefox Focus as your default browser.

      I used to use the duckduckgo browser which deleted absolutely everything every time it was closed from the app switcher unless you specifically excluded it. That is what i want. I am using fennec at the moment because ff focus isnt on fdroid and i dont think a fennec focus exists. I try not to ever use google play but if ff focus can be downloaded from github that would be okay

      I just downloaded Firefox Focus to keep open links private, and can share to regular Firefox if I need my sign ins for a specific opened link. Thanks!
