Turnout vs OpenIn 4
OpenIn 4 is a power tool that routes links, email addresses, phone numbers and files, with scripting and Focus mode rules. Turnout does one job, links to browsers and profiles, with less to set up.

Switching from OpenIn
Once Turnout is out, install it, choose it as your default browser when it asks, and recreate your browser rules in Settings › Rules. Keep OpenIn for mail, phone links and files if you use them.
