How does one control which profile opens URLs from other programs by default?

I have three profiles: work, personal, and "incognito" or "log into Okta with some other account" is more apropos.

Whenever I click a link in Slack or some other external program, it opens in my personal Firefox profile, but I'd prefer if it opens in the work profile. Is there a way to configure this behavior?

as far as im aware this feature doesnt exist, but it may be related to whatever profile is your "default" profile.

Came here to ask this - for me, a link from any app appears to always open in one of my (2) profiles, and it isn't (weirdly?) my default one. I don't necessarily need the granularity to always open X link in Y profile, but it'd be nice to know why links open in the "wrong" one...?!
