    That'd be great yeah! I think the implementation on https://github.com/chrishrb/gx.nvim is probably more suitable for the purpose of deprecating netrw. In his implementation he calls down to the OS utilities. e.g MacOS `open` and Linux's `xdg-open` instead of to netrw itself (which is what I'm currently doing).
  • gx.nvim - open links and more without netrw
