What is stopping GV from allowing us to open links in the system browser?

They’ll catch up with Blind (as it allows external browser opening) as they did for salary card… it’s probably not a high enough priority item

There should be an option to choose. I would go with the in-app browser because if someone posts a LinkedIn profile and I had selected the default browser, it would be opened on my LinkedIn app and the user would get notified. LinkedIn is just one example. to be on the safer side(anon) on Gvine, the in-app browser should be preferred.
