I'm using Kubuntu which uses the Dolphin file manager as default. When I download a file and use the download status icon at top right to check on a downloaded file "Show in folder" it comes up in Thunar.

A minor thing and it is not stopping me from doing the intended action, but the change throws me even so given I rarely use Thunar. I'm not sure it even gets installed with Kubuntu, but it has some special tools Dolphin does not have so I put it on my machine.

Any way to make Firefox show the location of the downloaded file using Dolphin? Didn't find anything where I looked using about:config

This should be handled by the system. What application is launched when you run:

xdg-open $HOME

I see what you mean. A sound suggestion.

In this case though that command brings up my default browser, Dolphin. It does show that Firefox is not referencing my Kubuntu settings when it uses Thunar for "Show me the file I just downloaded in its folder." That's why I was hunting about in about:config in Firefox.

Does it still happen with the flatpak package?

Had to double check how Firefox was packaged on this machine. Looks like I'm using the Snap version.

Worth trying a switch to the Flapak you think?
