I know you can play the game at chrome://dino, but it doesn’t evoke the same nostalgic feeling of a 10yr old me turning on aeroplane mode and spamming space bar to try and beat my brother’s high score. Good memories.

I’ve not been fond of Chrome and Edge because of the spyware aspect, but Firefox lately has become so friggin’ flakey since it’s gone snap that it’s almost unusable and now that there is a Linux version of Edge, it actually seems to operate quite smoothly.
I hope this doesn’t sound rude, but if you don’t like snaps, you should switch to another distro.
ps. I don’t like snaps either
@randint I do like PPA’s so like most things there are things you don’t like and things you like, and for what it’s worth I have a Manjaro, Debian, Ubuntu, Centos7, Fedora, CentosStream, Mint, Zorin, and MxLinux machines, most of them virtual machines, but Ubuntu is my daily driver, Debian I use for kernel builds because Debian needs signed kernel packages and other distros are OK with them. The others I need if I’m working on something specific to Redhat or that particular distro.
Install the flatpak version perhaps?
@Zyansheep The main problem with switching versions of Firefox is if you go backwards, i.e., if the flatpack is even one point release behind the existing, it’s very difficult to get the existing profile to work. I’ve compiled my own version which seemed like the ultimate solution, then the version doesn’t change unless I decide it does, but wasn’t able to read my old profile which is a problem.
Huh… is flatpak consistency behind snap when it comes to updates?
@Zyansheep Also both have their same evils, instead of using system shared libraries (and thus sharing memory) they are bringing their own libraries. If every large application did that we’d need a terabyte of RAM in our PC’s. Maybe a decade from now that will be affordable but beyond my budget at present.
@Zyansheep I don’t know the answer to that, the point is switching from one to the other is problematic. If I switch to flatpak and it happens to be newer but is even worse, then I can’t switch back.
