Firefox is installed by default on my Linux distro, though
If you have Ubuntu though you still gotta uninstall the snap version of Firefox and switch it to the deb version
or enable flatpaks >:)
But still remove the snap version.
The correct way wouldn’t be on windows I can tell you that
Indeed. Linux is superior. Linux > Windows.
I use Arch btw.
Legit me past week, had a misshap and had to reinstall windows, didn’t want the millions of installers so I just everything via winget
Scoop is preferred as it provides versioning and user installs compared to winget which are typically machine wide and require administrative roles.
Well shit, now there’s nothing left for Edge to do.
Imagine using Windows 😤😤
$ Flatpak install Firefox
Imagine having to spend 30 minutes just to run a specific software from Windows
This is the way
Tell me how to beat anticheat on Linux? Cuz that’s the only thing keeping me.
Very easy,don’t play those games :)
If your games are on Steam, check ProtonDB.
If not, you’re probably out of luck, but check recent Search Engine results. Best to limit results to around last 6 months, otherwise you’ll probably get outdated information. Only a few bigger non-steam multiplayer shooters work, I can only think of Overwatch right now.
Give me a little LPT - how do you search for results within a date range?
To see if the games with anticheat that you want to play are supported on linux, check areweanticheatyet.com they have a pretty huge list of anticheat status where are listed supported, unsupported and denied games.
For work, I have no option other than Windows. Right now, I use a mix of WSL2, winget, scoop to get around which is nice. I get to ignore most of the rough edges of Windows lol
Yeah thats fair enough. Exceptions can be made for work lol.
sudo pacman -S firefox
-Syu
bruh
windows users installing a web browser: then vs now
maybe in a decade linus from LTT will be able to use a package manager

Piped is a privacy-respecting open-source alternative frontend to YouTube.
I’m open-source, check me out at GitHub.
lol if he can use them on windows this easily he was clearly trying to fuck it up on linux
`sudo pacman -S firefox```
I use arch btw
I also use Arch btw.

choco install
I liked the obsolete shim for that:
cinst
- save some letters.Same with
cup
instead ofchoco update
.I’ve just reinstated them anyway.
apt-get
, bitches.And don’t forget to close the door on the way out!
You misspelled
pacman
yay your ass outta here
Get rid of that old yay yay ass haircut
I always thought apt and apt-get is the same thing so why type more when you can less?
But then again, I’m a linux noob that only uses distros like Ubuntu.
I also like the software center thing in Ubuntu because of GUI and… um… why do I see a bunch of people with pitchforks?
apt is a newer tool that combines the functionality of apt-get and apt-cache. It’s not as backwards compatible but has a nicer more human readable output
sudo apt-get install bitches bitches not found
🙁
The real trick is to not install anything, because Firefox comes pre-installed on most Linux distros.
You mean “pre-installed with most DEs”…
pre-installed
You don’t use Arch, btw
OUT.
This is now cool people thread.
Don’t you need to google the exact package name anyways?
winget search <query>
Or just try to install, and it shows you what the package name is.
sudo emerge -av www-client/firefox
Are you sure you don’t want the binary?
CPU: AMD Ryzen 9 5900X (24) @ 3.700GHz
It takes me like 10 minutes to compile these days :D. Before, yes.
yay -S firefox
Man I love WinGet I just hope they add multi-threaded download to speed up downloads also downloading while installing other applications
Nope, the correct way is
sudo xbps-install -Suv firefox
.Check out
xi
fromxtools
.Why, it’s not the right package name?
No, xi is just a handy script that does
sudo xbps-install
with less typing and also helps with installing local packages (ones you built with xbps-src).Oh, cool, didn’t know that, thanks 👍.
But xbps is still keeps track of installed packages, right, xi is just a script.
I was wondering where the Void guys at…
