pHr34kY,

And that’s the SLOW way!

Exactly

VitabytesDev,

The correct way is:


<span style="color:#323232;">sudo pacman -S chromium
</span><span style="color:#323232;">sudo pacman -Rs chromium
</span><span style="color:#323232;">sudo pacman -S firefox
</span>

it’s always important to install chrome so google can see the first website you visit before you uninstall is www.firefox com/download

QuazarOmega,

Ah yes, the bait-and-switch strategy

Peter1986C,

The GIF shows a system where generally speaking this is not required (it could have been Firefox instead of Chrome).

catsarebadpeople,

Ok but the joke is that you install Chrome just to install Firefox then uninstall Chrome…

Peter1986C,
@Peter1986C@lemmings.world avatar

Which applies mostly to Windows and maybe to MacOS. You do not download an installer on Linux if the package manager has got you covered.

catsarebadpeople,

Yeah we know but that’s not the joke lol. What’s your deal dude? Explaining jokes to socially inept people is actually pretty boring. I’m out

Nobara came with Firefox, do most distros not?

You999,

Does nobara still include Firefox? They moved to chromium as the default browser in 39 because kiosk mode in Firefox is Bork’d

c0mbatbag3l,
@c0mbatbag3l@lemmy.world avatar

Oh I haven’t installed 39 yet, 38 came with it out of the box.

WeLoveCastingSpellz,

I installed 38 first and than upgraded to 39 back thab firefox was the default, with the upgrade they didn’t remove firefox and install chrome into my pc so I am hapoy avout that

I know Raspberry Pi OS apps with chromium.

But… Firefox is always already installed.

0x2d, (edited )

browsers i have:

firefox (main)

librewolf (😏)

vivaldi (no longer have installed except on my phone)

chromium (for webusb)

cashews_best_nut,

Get yourself a copy of Floorp. It’ like Librewolf but better.

progettarsi,

pacman -Sy waterfox

You can smell the Manjaro influence from 3 miles away

(Unless you just like living on the edge)

progettarsi, (edited )

no i don’t like edge too bloated ahah. no btw i used arcolinux back jn the days (6 months ago) now i’m using librewolf on windows 11 ghost spectre

backhdlp,
@backhdlp@lemmy.blahaj.zone avatar

Does Arco do the incomplete update bullshit too or are you just misremembering the command?

progettarsi,

probably the second

Aurenkin,

Linux users uninstalling browser: basically same as what the op shows.

Windows users uninstalling browser

pHr34kY,

21 minutes. Mother of God.

cupcakezealot,
@cupcakezealot@lemmy.blahaj.zone avatar

and 22 seconds in: now most of these methods don’t work

Unyieldingly,

you can install the Malware CCleaner on Malware Windows and uninstall it in a few minutes.

Was going to upvote then saw them install chrome. Just why? Use Firefox or Chromium

prunerye,

Typical Gnome user.

ReCursing,
@ReCursing@kbin.social avatar

Use Firefox, not Chromium

HarryS,

No, use GNU IceCat instead, don’t be shacked down by proprietary blobs restricting your freedom in your web browser

Secret300,

Why does gnome software looks so much smoother of an interface back then. Now the search takes forever and the interface is buggy.

kattenluik,

Every time I’ve ever been aware of a Gnome update is because they changed something they shouldn’t have at all or some update caused it to be buggy and slow. A lot of those were recent updates.

funkless_eck,

why doesn’t my version have a launch button like the gif, btw? Genuine question. I have to launch it separately from SUPER+A every time

prime_number_314159,

A major factor is the window manager you use, and the settings of that window manager. I’m not up to speed with it, but I think this one is GNOME.

xePBMg9,

Or, you know


<span style="color:#323232;">$ packagemanagerofchoice firefox

Rentlar,

the hardcorest users use https://lynx.browser.org/

Potatos_are_not_friends,

apt install ‘WTF IS THIS SHIT?’

YoorWeb, (edited )

apt-get

Edit: huh, I’m old school I guess, this is from debian docs:

apt(8) for all interactive command line operations, including package installation, removal and dist-upgrades.

apt-get(8) for calling Debian package management system from scripts. It is also a fallback option when apt is not available (often with older Debian systems).

Not in years, by now.

TheEighthDoctor,

BeigeAgenda,
@BeigeAgenda@lemmy.ca avatar

Yeah the mouse just passed over Firefox.

victorz,

They have that installed already. Likely that is their main browser.

umbrella,
@umbrella@lemmy.ml avatar

firefox tho

victorz,

They already have that, as you can see in the clip.

Nomad,

sudo apt-get install firefox qutebrowser

olafurp,

Not accurate, firefox comes preinstalled
