Wow! What an observant smart thought.

Well, except for the fact that code conversion doesn’t give you the permission to change licenses or remove copyright. And the small matter of fact that both projects mentioned are Canonical projects, where whatever code that is not directly copyrighted by Canonical, is contributed by someone who signed an agreement with this stipulation:

(b) To the maximum extent permitted by the relevant law, You grant to Us a perpetual, worldwide, non-exclusive, transferable, royalty-free, irrevocable licence under the Copyright covering the Contribution, with the right to sublicense such rights through multiple tiers of sublicensees, to reproduce, modify, display, perform and distribute the Contribution as part of the Material; provided that this license is conditioned upon compliance with Section 2.3.

“Us” being Canonical of course. So they could actually “re-license” the projects right now, without changing a single line of code.

It’s always astonishing how condiment in their ignorance people are when it comes to these matters.

Surprised no one mentioned the BROWSER environment variable.

Not everyone use xdg crap.

They are the best most polished because there exists two other worse implementations in my anecdotal experience.

Wow. Very factual and thorough.

Gnome and KDE currently have the most polished and integrated Wayland compositors, and are the least likely to have any noticeable issues compared to X11
