When I click on a link, say in a messaging application like signal desktop or pidgin, or click on a button in an application that would take me to a web page Firefox opens a new window, but stays on the default page and never navigates to the link, nor is that link in the address bar either.


I'm running on Ubuntu 16.04.3 and Firefox 58.0.2 (64-bit)

You can check if thee %u parameter (Exec=firefox %u) is present in the .desktop file to pass the URL to Firefox.
