Comment 14 for bug 1776873

Agreed. This seems like fundamental desktop functionality to me.

My approach so far is to right click on the link, copy it, and then in a terminal type

xdg-open "<paste>"

where <paste> is the pasted link.

In case it's useful, here's an updated list from above, but clearly there should be a way for people to choose themselves what to whitelist. Can someone explain how to add to the whitelist?

 - steam
 - apt
 - ssh
 - tg
 - magnet
 - urn
 - zoommtg
 - irc
 - git
 - tg
