I’m using GrapheneOS, the default Vanadium browser works great but it doesnt block ads. I want to install a 2nd browser just for youtube and my specific Google account for youtube. I also tried Newpipe and similar apps, but they cant use my Google’s playlist and comments. I need them, that is why I think to use a 2nd browser.

Is there a way to set Youtube links (youtube.com, m.youtube.com…etc) to be opened in a non default browser, say Brave or Firefox?

    I am on graphene.

    Give me a minute.

    Go to settings > apps > default apps > opening links

    Select vanadium > select in browser
    Should now say don’t allow to open links.

    Set your preferred browser to open in app.

    Test.

      thanks but i swear i must be missing something here:

      1. Settings / Apps / Defaults Apps / Opening Links

      2. Vanadium => Open in browser. It now says Dont allow to open links

      3. Firefox => Open in App. It now says Allow to open links

      I assume Vanadium is still aet as Default browser in Settings/Appa/Default App / Browser app. Then, I only do the steps you show above.

      Test: tap on anylink => vanadium opens.
