Open Slack archive links in the default browser

[akashnimare]

I'm trying to figure out a way where I can open Slack archive/app_redirects links in Chrome itself. Currently, we get that default popup that says open this link in the Slack app which I don't want instead would like to open those links in the Chrome browser itself. I can open the links when opened in the same tab but open in a new tab always shows that annoying pop up. Basically need a way to handle those deep links.

module.exports = {
  defaultBrowser: "Google Chrome",
  handlers: [
    {
      // Open any url that includes the string "workplace" in Firefox
      match: '*.slack.com/archives/*',
      browser: "Chrome"
    },
  ]
};

Sounds like you're opening a Slack-specific url with a slack protocol, or similar. Finicky can't help there, it is only able to intersect when the default browser normally would've triggered.
