Alex Stevenson-PriceI've always been a Safari guy, but I've been trying out Arc as my web browser this week, and actually really enjoying it. The Spaces feature feels like the best implementation of browser profiles I've seen, making it easy and pleasant to separate personal and work. And although it takes a lot of getting used to, I'm really liking the structure of the tabs and the kinda… persistent tab bookmark things?
But I really wanted certain links to open in specific Spaces (e.g. Github links in Work space). I've always used Choosy for those kinda rulesets and it works great, but it doesn't have an understanding of Arc's Spaces, so I had to solve that. Fortunately I was able to come up with an AppleScript app that I can set as a browser in Choosy and then it opens links in the Space I want them in. 😄 Script here for anyone else who might be crazy enough to want such a thing: https://alexjsp.paste.lol/arc-space-applescript
phy@alexjsp I agree it is annoying you can’t route to a Space before a URL opens in Little Arc. At least you can use CMD Shift O to open it from Little Arc into a particular Space of main Window.
https://sindresorhus.com/velja#faq has some notes on features Arc needs to make routing better.
Also, Spaces and Folders can be converted to/from, which is a nice way to break a big Space into smaller ones and recombine as you resolve a child-space’s purpose (project, trip RnD, etc).
