I don't think so because this is what I get when running xdg-open:
# this does not work:
$ xdg-open http://gnu.org
/home/mekeor/.guix-profile/bin/xdg-open: line 369: firefox: command not
found
/home/mekeor/.guix-profile/bin/xdg-open: line 369: mozilla: command not
found
/home/mekeor/.guix-profile/bin/xdg-open: line 369: netscape: command not
found
xdg-open: no method available for opening 'http://gnu.org'
# this works just fine:
$ BROWSER="icecat" xdg-open http://gnu.org
As you might have guessed, I do not use GNOME.
Did you try to set BROWSER environment variable?
