Let's do it! 👍 No need to maintain this duplication anymore. 

> And what should be the one we prefer?

I'd lean towards `[browser/locales/en-US/browser/linuxDesktopEntry.ftl](https://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/rev/6936c4c3fc9bee166912fce10104fbe0417d77d3/browser/locales/en-US/browser/linuxDesktopEntry.ftl)` instead. That's the source of truth we use for our official .deb package (bug 1824327 / [D176588](https://phabricator.services.mozilla.com/D176588)). I'd avoid using the one I added in bug 1390071 for 2 reasons: 
 1. Mozilla doesn't ship the Firefox Snap anymore, so this file is unused by actual users.
 2. Back then, it was just a copy of what Canonical already had for Firefox. I didn't spend too much thinking of each entry like the ones you highlighted in comment 2. 

If we want to improve the content of the .desktop file, I'd loop in :glandium who's the official maintainer of the Firefox package on Linux. 

How does that sound to you, :gerard-majax?
