   "The dialog asking you to choose which app to open the file in is a
   Flatpak

   portal thing. I'm not sure we can fix it. It's baked into how Flatpak apps
   handle things like this."

   This dialogue relates to the second dialogue when clicking "File Type
Options". When we set the default application, the first dialogue doesn't
appear.
   It doesn't relate to snap or flatpak. They do not change the source code of
the applications. Even for snap version of some applications, I've seen the
first dialogue

     The dialog asking you to choose which app to open the file in is a Flatpak
     portal thing. I'm not sure we can fix it. It's baked into how Flatpak apps
     handle things like this.

     The button doing nothing when clicked is a legit issue that we can fix,
though.
