Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/floccusaddon/floccus/issues/1747

Describe the feature you'd like to request

Allow the Android app to open selected bookmarks in a private window.

Describe the solution you'd like

I have a few ideas for implementation:

Add a global option where selecting a bookmark will ask whether it should be opened in a private window with a "remember" option (editing a bookmark would also allow changing the privacy setting).
Add a global setting to the application where all bookmarks are opened in a private window by default
Add an option to the 3-dot menu to open the bookmark is a private window

Ideally this would be implemented as #1 and #2. Would it be possible for this setting to carry over to desktop browsers?
#1 could be expanded to mark some bookmarks as "no sync".

Describe alternatives you've considered

None

Hello 👋

Thank you for taking the time to open this issue with floccus. I know it's frustrating when software
causes problems. You have made the right choice to come here and open an issue to make sure your problem gets looked at
and if possible solved.
I'm Marcel and I created floccus a few years ago, maintaining it ever since. I currently work for Nextcloud
which leaves me with less time for side projects like this one than I used to have.
I still try to answer all issues and if possible fix all bugs here, but it sometimes takes a while until I get to it.
Until then, please be patient.
Note also that GitHub is a place where people meet to make software better together. Nobody here is under any obligation
to help you, solve your problems or deliver on any expectations or demands you may have, but if enough people come together we can
collaborate to make this software better. For everyone.
Thus, if you can, you could also have a look at other issues to see whether you can help other people with your knowledge
and experience. If you have coding experience it would also be awesome if you could step up to dive into the code and
try to fix the odd bug yourself. Everyone will be thankful for extra helping hands!
To continue the development and maintenance of this project in a sustainable way it is expected that you donate to the project when opening a ticket,
if you're not a donor already. You can find donation options at https://floccus.org/donate/. Thank you!

One last word: If you feel, at any point, like you need to vent, this is not the place for it; you can go to the Nextcloud forum,
to twitter or somewhere else. But this is a technical issue tracker, so please make sure to
focus on the tech and keep your opinions to yourself.

I look forward to working with you on this issue
Cheers 💙

I think this is not possible in android. All I can do is send a link open intend how android opens that is up to android and your android settings. I'm thus gonna have to close this. Sorry.
