Title: php files now open by default in Chrome Status in shared-mime-info package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Until at least 16.04, php files used to open by default in Gedit. I'm talking about when you double click on them in Nautilus (or the first "open with <application>" options that shows up in the right- click menu) After I upgraded to 20.04 (not sure in which version the change was), now they open by default in Google Chrome. (I guess they open in the default browser which in my case is Chrome). This is a stupid default. Do I need to explain to you that php files are executed on the server? Opening them in a browser makes no sense in 99.999999% of cases. When one opens a php file locally, the most likely scenario is that you are opening it in order to edit it. So if you had switched from gedit to some other text editor I could understand it, but opening it in the browser by default is an idiotic default for php files. I upgraded because I was sick of running age-old versions of almost every program, most no longer supported and full of bugs that were fixed years ago upstream, but I'm astonished at the amount of regressions and, worse, idiotic design decisions that have either been taken either with the specific purpose of making things worse, or were taken by idiots that didn't put the slightest amount of thought in it. Fucking unbelievable. Every major release of Ubuntu is a step backwards. Mostly because of Gnome.
