Hello!
So, is there a way to change the file picker in browsers?
Recently i have switched from Gnome Files (Nautilus) to Thunar.
Yes, i use Gnome.
I have used the command
|xdg-mime default thunar.desktop inode/directory|
So.
|$ xdg-mime query default inode/directory thunar.desktop|
But then i noticed that file opener in browsers (Firefox-stable and Chrome) both are
"Gnomish". I thought that it is Nautilus.
I went full speed and added
|xdg-mime default thunar.desktop x-directory/normal xdg-mime default
thunar.desktop inode/directory |
to
|/.config/mimeapps.list .local/share/applications/mimeinfo.cache
.local/share/applications/mimeapps.list /usr/share/applications/mimeapps.list |
Then i understood that it is not Nautilus, but Gtk File chooser.
Now i wonder if there is a way to use "native" Thunar and not this GTK file
chooser?
I tried
|GTK_USE_PORTAL=1 google-chrome-stable|
No help.
I tried for Firefox
|ui.allow_platform_file_picker=true widget.use-xdg-desktop-portal=true|
in /about:config
/
(i did not know how to make it correctly so it looks like this)

Also no help.
I read there is some bug with it in FF, but what about Chrome then?
I use Firefox-stable as a main browser.
Found this solution but dont know how to implement it here

*Any ideas?
Have a look at:
https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Firefox#XDG_Desktop_Portal_integration
Changing widget.use-xdg-desktop-portal.file-picker in about:config from 2 to 1
gives me the kde file picker.
