Use Finicky to direct urls to multiple Chrome profiles at workplace
Finicky is a macOS utility that allows you to configure rules for directing URLs to different web browsers or browser profiles. Using it to direct URLs to multiple Chrome profiles at the workplace can be useful for separating work-related browsing from personal activities or for managing different projects. With this optimal way, you can gain the benefit of not wasting your time to re-do actions to make it works well with your browser sessions.

Outlook now ignores Windows' Default Browser and opens links in Edge by default
I'm currently experimenting with "link eye" from FDroid on Android. There's also [finicky](https://github.com/johnste/finicky) for MacOS.

Is there a way to open certain links on chrome rather than on default browser.
Here's an open source solution. Set it up, forget about it. https://github.com/johnste/finicky
- How do I stop this from coming up?

PSA: If you removed the old Discover button with --disable-features and it returned as the Bing logo, the feature name has changed
The workaround to disable Bing/Discover (msEdgeSidebarV2) on MacOS is to install finicky and set it as the default browser so it can launch Edge for you with customized arguments.

How to work with different browser profiles
Finicky will help you when you use different browsers, and/or different profiles. As a consultant I often use browser profiles to split my clients. I have a "Binx.io" profile for all Binx related work. For each client I have corresponding profiles. Let's call them "Client A" and "Client B".

Using Finicky to handle URLs
// See https://github.com/johnste/finicky module.exports = { defaultBrowser: "Vivaldi", handlers: [ { match: ({ opener }) => opener.bundleId === "org.whispersystems.signal-desktop", browser: { name: "Google Chrome", profile: "Profile 2" } }, { match: "open.spotify.com/*", browser: "Spotify" }, { match: [ /miro.com\/app\/board\//, ], browser: "com.electron.realtimeboard" }, { match: [ /zoom.us\/j\//, ], browser: "us.zoom.xos" }, { match: [ /https:\/\/atlassian.slack.com\/archives\//, ], browser: "Slack" }, { match: [ finicky.matchHostnames([ /abc.net.au$/, /news.com.au$/, /smh.com.au$/ ]), ], browser: { name: "Google Chrome", profile: "Profile 2" } } ] }

Bad Emacs Defaults
Huh, didn't know abbrev had that limitation (wonder why?). Gave it a go in espanso (https://espanso.org/), and it does work there.

Show HN: I automated 1/2 of my typing
I use a tool called "Espanso" to accomplish something similar at work. It only runs locally, so no weird data scraping issues to worry about. And it's easy to update as things changes becauase everything lives in a simple yml file.
https://espanso.org/
It can do simple text replacement, so I have words, phrases, and sentences I use frequently compressed into a few keyboard clicks. It can also grab what is in your clipboard, so that can be incorporated into responses, which is simple but very handy.
A simple text replacement looks like this in the yaml file:
