detect what the default browser of the user is

Please don't do stuff like this. You will always get it wrong. I hate apps trying to be "clever" placing unneccessary friction upon my workflow, because they always get it wrong. Then I have to figure out how their regarded auto detection works so I can trick it into doing the rigjt thing.

I do agree, yeah. If we would have auto-detection, I'd want a manual override to be implemented for sure.
It's a CLI, so it wouldn't be too bad to add a --browser=firefox flag or similar, but it just makes it even more obvious that this feature only adds complexity, because we would have two solutions when we hardly needed one.

The clankers always try to be clever.
