Did not investigate further but this throws the following error on click in 60.4 for some reason:

NS_ERROR_XPC_CANT_MODIFY_PROP_ON_WN: Cannot modify properties of a WrappedNative  contentAreaUtils.js:1230
	openURL chrome://global/content/contentAreaUtils.js:1230:7
	onclick chrome://messenger/content/aboutDialog.xul:1:1

This appears to be fixed in Daily. However, it shows up as "Mozilla.org" instead of Mozilla - but the link works.

Should we fix this Magnus? And change the wording to be "Mozilla" again versus Mozilla.org?

Comment 5

[Magnus Melin [:mkmelin]]

It's possible the wording is different on release vs nightly.
For fixing, would take a patch, but probably not important enough to put much effort into at this point if it's working in nighlies.

Looks like this isn't working in the Beta 2 on Linux. Benjamin, can you confirm?

Comment 7

Confirmed doesn't work in beta 2
