Description

We could prompt to remember preferred app in local storage, and show matrix.to as an interstitial which defaults after N seconds to route to your preferred app, or some such. See https://twitter.com/w00teh/status/845433280279252993

Research direction

No file or test is named. Start by tracing the redirect flow and reading the linked proposal, then define how the preferred app is stored, how the matrix.to interstitial behaves, and what the timeout should be. Done means a chosen app is remembered in local storage and the interstitial defaults to it after the agreed delay.
