hehe

No idea how to do that on purpose, yet

But if it is no problems for you, try the flatpak version or, the what ever goes with your pakagemanager, switch and try.

The choice of clicking on folders open or selects does not matter it seems, and you have options of what apps opens a .text file etc, "default apps" or something.
But nope, i can't do this on Fedora KDE, tried all versions.


Ps, they say: "if the bug is useful, then it's a Feature!

The name of your pain is xdg-open.

I would say more but the mere name is causing me to become incoherent.

Sorting out xdg file association problems was Complicated the last time I had to do it, but if your

~/.local/share/applications

directory has a gimp.desktop file containing a

MimeType=

line that has

inode/directory

in it somewhere, that association is what needs removing, or perhaps just move the gimp.desktop elsewhere temporarily and see what happens.
