Hi! sorry this is happening for you. can you share what desktop environment and default browser you're using?

KDE Plasma, but that's not pertinent, as it was also doing it in Budgie desktop. The default browser is Firefox, but I switched to another browser and it's the same behavior. URL handling doesn't seem to be affected by the default browser, but I'm willing to be proven wrong.
