Default Apps (lazysoci.al)

Currently there's only the browser and no way to add additional default apps such as YouTube.

With the way things are currently, each "link type" will require me to add manual support for them. Eg. if you want default apps for links that look like https://youtu.be/ I would have to add it for those types of links.

This is kind of painful for me to add and not very maintainable since there are probably millions of apps that handle special links.

I think if users wanted to choose more types of default apps other than browsers I woule need to provide a fully customizable default app chooser. In practice, what it would probably look like is a form you can fill out in the app where you choose the link format and the default app to launch for that link format.

Does this sound like the feature you want? Please let me know. I'll also track this on the roadmap.
