    yesterday i tried to delete snap-store, it took firefox with it, and then i got no browser to troubleshoot that.

    tried to install firefox from flatpak, it installed it but it disappears after restart.

    dealing with linux felt like this lately https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=D7OmauE8FEU

    had to reinstall ubuntu 3 facking times :/

      That is because in ubuntu firefox is installed as snap by default, as for the flatpak version i do not know what happened. If you want firefox as a deb you need to add a ppa and then you can apt install firefox. There are lots of guides. All of these package managers can be confusing at times

        i should have known: i didnt have a browser to download anything, i could have downloaded firefox.deb with phone or something then install it

        of these package managers can be confusing at times
