how do i configure lynx browser as default browser for html

["jindam, vani" <jindam.vani@disroot.org>]

hello debian-users,

good morning !?!?!

i have installed debian bullseye on userland 
app. i have disabled recomnend packages for my 
entire packages. i have installed openbox. when 
i click "web browser" it does not launch 
"lynx browser". i have changed x-www-browser 
to lynx. how do i configure my system to 
use lynx browser for html files, open links, 
open in external viewer, etc..?

$sudo update-alternatives --config www-browser
There is only one alternative in link group www-browser (providing /usr/bin/www-browser): /usr/bin/lynx
Nothing to configure.


$ update-alternatives --list x-www-browser
/usr/bin/lynx
/usr/bin/palemoon


$ update-alternatives --get-selections | grep browser
gnome-www-browser              auto     /usr/bin/palemoon
www-browser                    auto     /usr/bin/lynx
x-www-browser                  auto     /usr/bin/lynx

$ sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/x-www-browser x-www-browser /usr/bin/lynx 50
update-alternatives: using /usr/bin/lynx to provide /usr/bin/x-www-browser (x-www-browser) in auto mode
jindam@localhost:~$ sudo update-alternatives --config x-www-browser
There are 2 choices for the alternative x-www-browser (providing /usr/bin/x-www-browser).

  Selection    Path               Priority   Status
------------------------------------------------------------
* 0            /usr/bin/lynx       50        auto mode
  1            /usr/bin/lynx       50        manual mode
  2            /usr/bin/palemoon   40        manual mode

p.s.
* after reading couple of online resources, i 
thought best to ask here, bcoz update-alternatives 
seems to be debian way
* i did ask @ https://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-software-2/how-do-i-configure-lynx-browser-as-default-browser-for-all-html-related-things-4175717193/
