Hi; In Gnome there used to be a facility for establishing your favourite program for basic functions. Example, to call up a specific browser when you clicked on a link.
I used to use Firefox as my main browser set to start on startup in its own workspace. I would also choose "Web" (formerly Epiphany) as my favourite so whenever I clicked a link not in Firefox, Web would open in the workspace where I was working for a quick search.
How now in Gnome 3 can I set this favourite or preferred Browser to Web?
[P.S. I have never found a Gnome help site that actually answers questions or gives help. I have used email and their forum without every getting answers so I am try Fedora for information.]

In the GNOME Settings panel, click on "Details" (Unintuitive, I know) and go to "Default Applications"
