Take something user-friendly, like Linux Mint, or Fedora.

I’d recommend against it, but if you’d really want to try something Arch-based, you can try EndeavourOS.

If you have NetworkManager installed (you should have), you can use nmtui, TUI tool.

TUI is <u>T</u>erminal <u>U</u>ser <u>I</u>nterface, and IMO very user-friendly.

They said, it’s GrapheneOS.

In Pop!_OS, you have the Pop!_Shop, and they added their own repos for software aren’t included in Ubuntu’s repo or exist mainly as Snap packages; they also included Flathub.

Under the app name you want to install, you’ll have a little drop-down box with option to choose (if there’s more than one option) where to download the package from.

Use && to use multiple commands one after the other, don’t use ;.

eruchitanda, 7 days ago

• && means execute if the command before ended successfully

• || means execute if the commnad before failed

• ; just means execute the command - no matter if succeeded or failed

It does work with Redirector.

• Settings - About <browser-name> - tap on logo 3(?) times - Custom Add-on Collection - add your own collection.

You could also add Iceraven’s collection.

• Collection Owner (User ID) - 16201230

• Collection name - What-I-want-on-Fenix

Last time I checked, it worked on all Firefox ‘spins’, except stable; it also works on Mull and Fennec.

eruchitanda, 11 days ago

I would do:

pacman -S --needed firefox

Instead.

You can replace pacman with AUR helper (I’d suggest installing Paru or YAY) if you’re using one.

eruchitanda, 11 days ago

BTW, for AUR helpers, you don’t use sudo.

‘On my machine it works’ is not a strong argument, and is highly unlikely, due to the language it was written in.

Pacman is written in C, APT in C++, DNF in Python, and Zypper in C++ as well.

So, no. Pacman ‘wins’.

What truly matters is which tool is best suited for your use case.

For me, the fastest way to learn is by playing with it, and it sounds like you’re the same.

If you prefer to avoid installing it ‘bare metal’, you can have it on a VM.

I’d suggest specifically QEMU, or VirtualBox.

QEMU, because of the performance, and VB, for its universality, and cross-platform compatibility.

I’d also suggest, like other commenters here, to learn CLI tools, CMD and PowerShell commands, and DiskPart too.

Honesty? Nowadays Linux is just easier for me.

Sometimes you forget that a lot of tools you are use to have in Linux don’t even exist on Windows (like watch and cut). On Windows there are some problems you don’t even have to deal with on Unix-like systems.

P.S. for anyone that want to install NPxSB, install their new app Tubular instead.
