Open
File picker window not appearing
Hi all, I've been experiencing an issue with the file picker. I'm not sure why, but when a website says "click to upload" and I click it, nothing happens, although drag and drop still works. Also, I can't download anything as when I click "save as" nothing happens? I'm using arch linux and bspwm window manager if that helps. Any help is much appreciated :D

Heya, you might be missing some dependencies for your windowing environment to provide the system portals, or not be using the built in ones if there are none provided, see e.g. support.mozilla.org/questions/1573964
