Is there a way to set it up so it always stays in Firefox for certain links? I prefer to watch YouTube in Firefox and having to see the popup everytime is kind of annoying.

This works, but... from a UI perspective, every time there is an "Always..." option, I really want there to also be a "Never..." option.

Never use the app to open YT links.

Similarly...

Never trust this computer.

    I was just thinking yesterday, why isn't there a "never store credit card info" option

    Tasker, Klick'r, or similar probably could help by at least automating the response.

    But yeah, Google has been gradually forcing these dark programming patterns down Android users' collective throats since the early days.

    Apple is the same (iPhone specifically has "Always trust this computer" but not "Never")

    I suspect that particular one is less a dark pattern and more the fact that you might one day want to connect to the computer for something other than charging and then a lot of users would complain about not being able to find the correct place to un-never it.
