Application.FollowHyperlink 
"https://www.notion.so/1-Make-Folder-ec50ff0941a243f0ba97aac5ffc37e26"

works for me.

It opens a Firefox tab, which contains an initial message:
"Oops there was an error loading this page
Refresh to load again"
and a Refresh button.

About a second later (without doing anything) it switches to  a Login Page:
"Welcome to Arens Group on Notion."
asking for credentials.
