Description

Hi.
I'm on ubuntu 18.04 + android.
I would like to be able to open web links in the chat in a private window.
Is there a way to do that?
I tried to add BROWSER=firefox --private-window %u in ~/.config/keybase/keybase.env but with no luck.

Thanks

Research direction

The report names ~/.config/keybase/keybase.env and the BROWSER setting as attempted entry points; begin by tracing how chat links are launched on Ubuntu and Android. Done means providing a supported way to open those links in a private browser window on the reported platforms.
