browserosaurus VS easy-move-resize

Can you also look into developing a similar tool to https://github.com/will-stone/browserosaurus for Windows?

This is my favorite: https://browserosaurus.com/

browserosaurus (Free) Browserosaurus is an open-source (GPLv3 license), browser prompter for macOS. It works by setting itself as the default browser; any clicked links in non-browser apps are now sent to Browserosaurus where you are presented with a menu of all your installed browsers. You may now decide which app you’d like to continue opening the link with.

Have you tried making a different desktop entry/shortcut for each Firefox profile and then setting a browser picker as your default browser?

- Junction (Linux browser picker): https://github.com/sonnyp/Junction

- Finicky (macOS browsee rule setter): https://github.com/johnste/finicky and Browserosaurus (macOS browser picker): https://github.com/will-stone/browserosaurus

- Hurl (Windows browser picker): https://github.com/U-C-S/Hurl

Browsersaurus Free

Since you mention Mail/Messages, I assume you are on macOS. I had a similar issue - wanting to always open links from Slack in Chrome, but links from elsewhere in Brave. I use Choosy[1] which works well for me, but there look to also be some free/libre alternatives, like Browserosaurus[2] (which I've never tried).

Browserosaurus (free): open a link in a specific browser

Closest is probably Browserosaurus, which will prompt to choose which browser to use whenever you click a link.

Easy Move+Resize (free): comfortably move and resize application windows

I use easy move + resize to do this. https://github.com/dmarcotte/easy-move-resize

Installed https://github.com/dmarcotte/easy-move-resize on my mac, and https://stefansundin.github.io/altdrag/ on my PC. Make moving and resizing windows easier, and I hate maximizing/full-screening windows, as I find it's a huge waste of screen space.

only use Homebrew for ‘Casks’ (GUI .apps)— `brew cask` subcommand

Nix or pkgsrc for reliable management of CLI tools (both, if you want to try Nix but want an escape hatch)

don't forget to install GNU coreutils, grep, find, and bash. (BSD coreutils are weird and anemic if you're used to GNU. macOS bash is ancient, etc.)

disable cursor acceleration (barely works, but it's the only thing that works): https://plentycom.jp/en/cursorsense/index.html

the only mature terminal emulator on the platform that performs okay (provided you enable GPU acceleration): https://iterm2.com/

recover basic key remapping functionality: https://karabiner-elements.pqrs.org/

recover basic audio controls like per-app volume mixing: https://github.com/kyleneideck/BackgroundMusic

recover FUSE support: https://osxfuse.github.io/

recover configurability for a whole host of missing functionality, like global keyboard shortcuts, through automation (Lua scripting): https://www.hammerspoon.org/

recover clipboard management: https://hluk.github.io/CopyQ/

if you don't use some hack to get window tiling, you might also want to...

recover basic window management functionality: https://github.com/rxhanson/Rectangle

recover modifier key window drag: https://github.com/dmarcotte/easy-move-resize

good luck.

- Grab and resize windows: you can try https://github.com/dmarcotte/easy-move-resize.

Yes that works for CLI apps. But some small gui apps provide no updater, are not available in the app store but only provide a brew cask (e.g. https://github.com/dmarcotte/easy-move-resize).
