apt-get, bitches.

And don't forget to close the door on the way out!

[-] Knusper@feddit.de 60 points 1 year ago

The real trick is to not install anything, because Firefox comes pre-installed on most Linux distros.

[-] linucs@lemmy.ml 69 points 1 year ago

pre-installed

You don't use Arch, btw

[-] Ooops@feddit.de 8 points 1 year ago

You mean "pre-installed with most DEs"...

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?

[-] NateSwift@lemmy.world 14 points 1 year ago

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

Firefox is installed by default on my Linux distro, though

[-] TooLazyDidntName@lemmy.world 12 points 1 year ago

If you have Ubuntu though you still gotta uninstall the snap version of Firefox and switch it to the deb version

Just casually having Firefox with plugins and settings described in my NixOS config.

Works always the same.

The REAL real wax is brew/Flatpak install Firefox

[-] victron@lemmy.world 7 points 1 year ago

Real. I just did that yesterday, uninstalled all that snap bullshit from kubuntu.

[-] kaitco@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

I honestly don’t understand why it’s a snap by default now. I’ve never got it to really function the way I want as a snap. Puts a sour taste in my mouth for Ubuntu altogether.

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

[-] 0x4E4F@lemmy.fmhy.ml 8 points 1 year ago

Nope, the correct way is sudo xbps-install -Suv firefox.

Don't you need to google the exact package name anyways?

Scoop is preferred as it provides versioning and user installs compared to winget which are typically machine wide and require administrative roles.

Man I love WinGet I just hope they add multi-threaded download to speed up downloads also downloading while installing other applications

Is this something everyone should know to do? Or just style points for programmers?
