Describe the bug

bug was reported in #2747

I did check:

But when I paste rewritten url in safari for example, it prompts to open in FreeTube, but the video does not start. I see just the default home page.

freetube://https://youtu.be/y9TizOUqsuc

Main takes:

This seems to be a macOS specific bug that doesn't exist in the Linux or Windows builds of FreeTube (macOS implements URL schemes differently than Windows and Linux).

[...] the relevant lines in FreeTube's code are here:
src/main/index.js#L738-L748
src/renderer/App.js#L501-L505

Pulled from IRC:

on Linux and Windows, the operating system does this when you use a URL scheme: /path/to/freetube.exe freetube://https://youtu.be/y9TizOUqsuc on macOS the operating system sends an event to the app which in electron is open-url, so some how our handling of it is not working properly

Expected Behavior

Extensions should work with FT

@absidue is this even an issue on our end? When i looked through the repo of both extensions we have listed it seems like they both dont support Safari.
