When I first played FL I thought it came out with all the others *^*

I don't outright dislike X4, but IMO it feels too... streamlined, in a way. You've got less wares, less ships, less sectors, no jumpdrive (yes I see the reasoning, no I still want the jumpdrive), the Xenon lost their aesthetic just to look like Mass Effect reapers, and fuckers stole my magnificently redundant ship classes. Can't have ship in Detroit.

X3: Terran Conflict.

Yes, we got X3FL in 2021 AND X4, but X4 is a very different game and X3FL is just a heavily scripted X3AP (more or less).

It's a more-than-me years old game with a lot of mods that keep it enjoyable to day – as "enjoyable" as it can be, that janky piece o' junk – but I feel about it the same way I feel about Halo 2: imagine what it could have been, if the devs had the resources they could have today. ~~(if you say "X4" I'm going to fucking flip)~~

Can't ever have anything nice, huh.

I think GNOME's filechooser is the GTK one (never used it so I'm not sure), mine looks like this:

It's entirely possible that Firefox changed and now uses XDG portals by default, I configured it like this a long time ago.

As for how to configure it, I honestly don't know.
It was a combination of messing with widget.use-xdg-desktop-portal on about:config, and changing XDG envvars and dotfiles; both by following several conflicting Reddit and bbs.archlinux.org posts.

XDG portal filechooser for Firefox: the KDE implementation uses Dolphin, which is full of features and I use most of them; the default GTK one is mildly infuriating to use and looks ugly too, but getting the browser to use the portal I want was a nightmare - especially since GTK discontinued the GTK_USE_PORTAL envvar.
The related Firefox config entries make no sense either.

Here it is:

#!/usr/bin/zsh

nl=$'\n'
dnl=$'\n\n'

url=$1
msgcontent=$url; shift
argi=1
for arg ($@); do
    argi=$(($argi + 1))
    msgcontent=${msgcontent}${nl}Argument\ ${argi}': '${arg}
done

title="${0:A}"
msg="An application attempted to open a web page:${dnl}\"${msgcontent}\"${dnl}Copy the URL to clipboard?"

kdialog --title $title --yesno $msg
answer=$?

if [[ $answer = 0 ]]; then wl-copy $url; fi

If you want to translate it to Bash, keep in mind that arrays behave differently between the two shells, and syntax like for arg ($@); do would likely misbehave or not work at all.

Also, there's an issue where some applications do something weird, and the URL seems to be a zero-length argument. I have absolutely no idea what's up with that.

You can set some browser-unrelated program or script as your desktop environment's default browser, for example I wrote a Zsh script that creates a KDE dialog and asks me to copy the URL to the clipboard.

I'm not currently at my PC, but if you want it I can paste it in a comment here when I get to it - it shouldn't be too hard to translate it to Bash, either.

Other than that? /usr/bin/true is a pretty nice default browser for applications to start without your consent, very minimal and lightweight.

It seems, in your anger, you killed them.

... except for reddit mods

Nah, it's just that /proc is incorrect - it contains information about running processes, as well as kernel data structures as visible by the process reading them.
