I wonder if it's a regression from bug 1966666. Could you please check

Ugh, according to https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xdg-desktop-
portal, that still doesn't have https://github.com/flatpak/xdg-desktop-
portal/pull/1203, so this is kind of expected...

Do we have contacts at canonical, can we get them to update the portal?

The problem is not on canonical side but on flatpak project. That work
has been again stalled. I'm not working on that anymore and Its off
today so I don't have links to share but Rob and Nathan are handling
this ..

Yeah this is not about the messaging, this is about the snap and the

Hello,
Unfortunately I cannot get a regression range using mozregression since I could 
only reproduce so far on snap builds, and to my knowledge mozregression does 
not bisect on those. I tried using mozregression but the issue is not 
reproducible on the builds provided( as tar.xz builds are not affected). 
Please let me know if there’s anything else I can do to help, thank you.

I backported the xdg-desktop-portal commit that Emilio mentioned to
24.04, "Added SchemeSupported to the OpenURI portal" and [uploaded it to
the desktop PPA](https://launchpad.net/~canonical-desktop-
team/+archive/ubuntu/sru-staging/+sourcepub/17453756/+listing-archive-
extra).

My test shows it's working but it would be much appreciated if the
affected user can confirm it, as I personally usually disable that
functionality in Firefox (so I could miss something) and also because
the stable release update is a long process.

I'll now proceed to attempt a backport for 22.04.
