Hey BenjaminHeller, sorry to jump in here!

The issue with it being a location versus a folder is that it doesn't show up in Bridge because on the system it is by default a hidden folder. The thing I really need in bridge is to show as a dropdown folder menu.

 

Thank you for your response. I did find a workaround. I needed to unhide the folder on macOS (Command + Shift + .) and then in Bridge (View/Show Hidden Files) It makes the menu much more complicated to navigate to, but it works. I set Bridge to go to that folder by default. So solved on my end.
