Do you mean you're given a choice in Firefox or in other apps? I meant being presented with a private/regular mode choice when opening from other apps, like sharing a link or using "open in browser".

Oh I see, I'm talking about where everything is in firefox, though if you mean just on the regular context menu of any link I don't see that for chrome either. In fact it looks like the only way to do it in either browser is what you said: choose in the settings to either have plain tabs or private by default. Now I'm curious how you managed to do it in other browsers.

The only one where it worked was I think the old Opera of years ago before it was bought out.

Nowadays I just keep both Firefox and Focus.

Ah, that makes sense. I still miss the text reflow that browser had, but I've long given up on finding a replacement for it.

Omg yes, it took me so long to give up on it, because of the text reflow. 😅 But then Firefox introduced reader mode and it helps a lot. I had forgotten all about reflow until you mentioned it.
