I actually meant "open with the web browser", not on emacs. I didn't

Oh. I was using `st` and after reading this I tested it in `alacritty` and
`xterm`. It works on these, so it's probably an issue with my `st`.

Since it's probably not a bug with emacs, I think we can close it here.
Thanks
for the help!
