usebruno
At each start, Bruno associates itself with HTML files (Ubuntu 22.04, deb install from debian.usebruno)
I have checked the following:
- [x] I have searched existing issues and found nothing related to my issue.
This bug is:
- [ ] making Bruno unusable for me
- [ ] slowing me down but I'm able to continue working
- [x] annoying
- [ ] this feature was working in a previous version but is broken in the current release.
Bruno version
2.1.0
Operating System
Ubuntu 22.04, on Nautilus
Describe the bug
Default software for all HTML files is my code editor. Each time I open Bruno (just at the opening), the default association in Nautilus for all HTML files, changes to Bruno.
Even if I saw absolutely no config for that in preferences.
2.1.0 installed with the ".deb" package from debian.usebruno, in a Ubuntu 22.04.
.bru file to reproduce the bug

I am experiencing this issue as well, for now I have updated .config/mimeapps.list which works as a temporary fix until the next launch.
It is a very annoying bug that occurs after every update. To correct this on Linux Mint 22.1 Cinnamon,in the Nemo File Manager, I click right on any html file. In the displayed menu, I click on "Open with", then "Other application...". In the list of approved programmes to open html files, I click on my web browser and the click the "Define as default" button. Then I validate my choice and close the window.
I do this every time I update Bruno. I hope the devs can find a way to prevent this html file association from happening.
We are not sure why this is happening. we have slotted some time this month to investigate on this.
It also happens to me at each start of Bruno (Ubuntu 24.04, deb installation). I think this may be electron (or rather xdg-settings used by electron) issue, several other applications using electron have it. And in this post a possible solution might be provided: https://github.com/electron/electron/issues/20382#issuecomment-1514049807
To add to the link posted by @tgrave, I could not reproduce this on Windows 11 and Bruno 2.6.1.
Same issue.
Linux Mint 22 (Wilma), Cinnamon Edition.
Bruno 2.7.0 installed via apt.
UPDATE: Installed every single version shortly after they were released up until the latest which is as of today 2.9.1 and all had the same issue.
In the ~/.config/mimeapps.list, this works momentarily for me, basically I maintain set "text/html=bruno.desktop" for what bruno do not rewrite to geany configuration:
text/html=bruno.desktop text/html=geany.desktop
[Added Associations] application/yaml=geany.desktop; application/json=geany.desktop; text/html=geany.desktop;brave_brave.desktop;
