FF as the default browser. is it possible to set such that when I open links on other apps, firefox launches a private window for those links?

there seems a similar option but it has a side effect, FF normal launch also becomes private (incognito).

On what operating system are you?

On Android, there should be a setting for it.
On a desktop OS, you can probably add --private-window as an argument into the launcher.
Don't know what the situation is on iOS...

I am on android and tried the setting already. hence the post.

thanks for the PC tip though.

On android you better stick to UTC Check, as this other user says:
