Description

In my Keybase app (on Debian 10, Gnome 3) clicking links brings up Chromium even though Firefox is set as the default browser and Firefox is set as the browser in all system settings and config I know of, so it seems that the choice to launch chromium is in keybase itself.

Research direction

Reproduce the report on Debian 10 with GNOME 3, with Firefox configured as the system default, and trace the Keybase client’s link-opening path. Done means clicking a link consistently launches the configured default browser rather than Chromium.
