.m3u8 is a file format for video streams. It works like a playlist, it’s a file that defines a collection of individual video files, each being one small part of the stream.
m3u8’s can’t be played natively by a browser, and if the OP has enabled autoplay media, kbin is probably directing the browser to that URL, the browser can’t play it in-tab, so it downloads it as a file instead.
Quirky little bug you found there OP. Codeberg would love to know.
Since nobody has filled you in, I may as well : Codeberg appears to be FOSS Github. It’s just a place for people to track bugs and collaborate on open source projects which is presumably, itself, open source.

There’s another post about this that has a codeberg issue placed.

Neat, I’ve made much ado about nothing lol. Still not sure what a codeberg is, suppose I should look at that too.

Sorry, how does one go about letting Codeberg know?
Ah, well it seems they already know lol
Heck, someone else doing the dirty work is just my style
