browserosaurus

Browserosaurus is an open-source (GPLv3 license), browser prompter for macOS. It works by setting itself as the default browser; any clicked links in non-browser apps are now sent to Browserosaurus where you are presented with a menu of all your installed browsers. You may now decide which app you’d like to continue opening the link with.

Installation

Download Browserosaurus from the GitHub releases page. Select x64 for Intel machines, or arm64 for Apple Silicon (M1) machines.

Or use Homebrew. Thank you very much to @i0ntempest and @tk4k for keeping this cask updated 🙏

brew install --cask browserosaurus

🚨 Please note that Browserosaurus only officially supports the version of macOS that I currently use, which you can assume to be the latest stable version.

Notable Forks

Browserosaurus is primarily made for my needs and environment. Therefore, some feature requests do not make it into the main project, but that's the beauty of Open Source, you are free to copy the code and make your own tweaks (as long as it remains open-sourced, of course, please see the license 😉). Here are some forks of this project that you may like to consider:

• Browseratops by @riotrah. Browserosaurus but for Windows!

Please PR your own fork to this list.
