[Bug 1947600] Re: Default browser changed from firefox to chrome

[Sebastien Bacher]

Reassigning to firefox, the issue is that snaps have no integration with
the alternatives system so x-www-browser isn't pointing to firefox as it
used to. We checked the archive for users of the alternative and we
those we not important enough to consider the issue as a rls blocker for
impish. We will get it to for the LTS as we complete the firefox deb to
snap transition.
