       The GTK file picker Firefox wants to use by default is meh. I'm not sure why it doesn't use the one provided by the OS when it's just one about:config tweak away. Change widget.use-xdg-desktop-portal.file-picker from 2 to 1 and you get the much, much better KDE file picker. Assuming you're using @kde of course.It's been a problem for ages on multiple operating systems, not a new thing. At least now you don't have to set environment variables and change startup scripts.#Linux #KDE

       It's frustrating sometimes because it does work properly on Mint w/Cinnamon; With the default value of 2 it uses Cinnamon's file picker.But I've had the same issue on FreeBSD and other Linux distros using KDE.

       @gemlog evolution is old and using GTK 3, there's not much I can do about it, but consider opening an issue report over in https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/evolution/-/issuesFor the dialog thing: does it replace your regular clipboard (the one you access with Ctrl-C/Ctrl-V), or the primary clipboard (the one you middle paste from)? The latter would make sense, but if it's the former, it is likely to be some interaction with your/KDE clipboard manager. Maybe you have syncing the two clipboards enabled?

       @gemlog If you're on KDE, why are you getting a GTK dialog anyway? Unless it's old apps (GTK 3 or so), everything should be going through the portal and give you the KDE dialog.
