TIL about "selectdefaultapplication". Now I don't need to fuss with xdg-mime whenever I want to stop VSCode from grabbing the default action for "open a folder" on #Linux

Unfortunately the project hasn't been updated in 4 years, but perhaps it's not a big issue for such a simple program.

@futureisfoss Yeah it's not ideal in that I have no clue how to theme it but I can confirm it gets the job done. 👍
