Switchyard

A rules-based browser launcher for Linux.

Features

• Browser rules: Automatically open links in specific browsers based on conditions you define.
• Link redirections: Clean up links before they open—remove tracking parameters, swap domains, and more.
• Quick launcher: When no rule matches, choose a browser with a click or keyboard shortcut.
• GTK4 + libadwaita: Native GNOME look and feel.
