I'm pretty sure whoopsie doesn't open a browser at all. Could you provide a test case?

The settings was applied in Firefox preference but not in system, after running "sudo update-alternatives --config x-www-browser" and "sudo update-alternatives --config gnome-www-browser" and setting my preferred brpwser as default, the issue resolved. Sorry for the bother.
