It's better than it used to -- until a couple of years ago, Firefox altogether had its own awful version of xdg-open; had all the logic to detect file associations, select apps etc.
In any event, you can edit ~/.config/mimeapps.list to fix it up. Hope that helps.
- girzel 9y agoI believe it's better! But it is still trying to handle application/octet-stream. Ie, it must have registered itself as a default fallback somewhere, and I can't find where...
- scrollaway 9y agoYour DE may be at fault as some of them try to do "smart" defaults. xdg-open itself may also be at fault (it's an atrociously bad shell script -- you can take a look at it if you want to debug it).
