MacControl which browser opens your links
Overview
Finicky is a lightweight Mac utility for developers and power users to manage link-handling behavior. Define rules via a simple JSON file to route specific URLs (based on domains, patterns, or app origins) to your preferred browser—Safari, Chrome, Firefox, Brave, or others. Ideal for separating work and personal browsing, testing web apps across browsers, or avoiding distracting sites in your main browser. Runs in the background with minimal resource usage and supports custom scripts for advanced logic, offering granular control without unnecessary bloat.
