I use twitter on my samsung pretty often, and I used to use fennec's send function to send certain tweets directly to my PC to view them there later, without much hassle and without leaving the twitter app. The problem is fennec is defunct now, and while firefox can send those tweets to my PC's firefox, it does so only after it opens in the firefox app and opens a new tab and requires several more button presses. Is there a way to get firefox to just immediately send the link to my PC from the twitter app itself?

Hi

Firefox for Android is able to send tabs from your Android device to another copy of Firefox. That is unchanged from the update last year.

It is not currently possibly (nor has it been) possible to send tabs from another app to Firefox on a PC.
