I'm sure everyone knows this, but `open` has an equivalent on Linux: `xdg-open`.

  Except xdg mime types are easily heist-able by programs and there is no universal truth for it. Install vscode on Linux and have fun with it hijacking opening directories. Which is easy enough to fix (with a bit of know how) or work around but annoying. MacOS is far from perfect but open always doing what I expect is a good example of what Apple did well.

    Xcode opening all my JSON files is equally obnoxious. At least it is relatively easy to sort that out in macOS.

      Good parallel. Super easy to fix on macOS.
