Yes that is your purpose

winget install Mozilla.Firefox

[uraniumblazer@lemm.ee]

Open windows to do
winget install Mozilla.Firefox?
Ewww.
sudo apt install firefox

[joyjoy@lemm.ee]

Where's the one-liner for UEFI shell to install arch?

[thunderwhiskers@lemmy.world]

I use Firefox but isn't edge considered a solid lightweight browser now?

[uraniumblazer@lemm.ee]

I didn't a understand a word of what u said lol

[spooky2092@lemmy.blahaj.zone]

Yes, hating on edge is just a meme. I use Firefox as my primary, but I'll use edge as a backup before chrome.

[stupidcasey@lemmy.world]

Eh, kinda dated, I would rather use edge than Google, of course fire fox is the goat

[cm0002@lemmy.world]

Edge is Chrome(ium). Even if it wasn't, it's still... Microsoft lmao

[ataridump@lemmy.world]

It’s for the best. They use Arch.

[stupidcasey@lemmy.world]

I just don't see a difference between the two anymore except Google is the current reigning Monopoly so it's morally worse.

[thetechnician27@lemmy.world]

winget? ewwww.

Open up the GUI package manager, look for Firefox, type in my password.

[__nobodynowhere@lemm.ee]

Do you want to give your data to Microsoft or Google?

[drathvedro@lemm.ee]

We don't use that one around here anymore. wget and curl is what we use to download a browser.

[i_fart_glitter@lemmy.world]

I have to do billing on a government (California) website monthly and it will not run on anything but Chrome. It says so at sign in, and it really is true. It’s the shittiest website I’ve ever used.

I feel dirty having it on my computer, and I get mad every time I open the browser.

[marcos@lemmy.world]

It's definitively not lightweight.

It should be as solid as a slightly old version of Chrome.

[clent@lemmy.dbzer0.com]

Where does the meme imply the other browser is a Google product?

[stupidcasey@lemmy.world]

This is almost certainly artificialy restricted User-Agent Switcher to trick the site into thinking it's Google (Not responsible for getting fired) sometimes just blocking JavaScript works, edge even has a compatibility mode to allow it

[0ops@lemm.ee]

Imo it was for while after it was released, and even for awhile after it switched to chromium, but it got bloated with extra features really quick over the last few years. Weird sidebars, copilot, coupon-enterring stuff, etc. Granted a lot of that can be disabled, but still, the only new feature I like so far is tab groups. I try to use Firefox as much as I can but use edge from time to time when the website I need insists on a chromium browser or has issues in Firefox.

[shizu@lemmy.world]

Neither.

[ziltoid1991@lemmy.world]

There's even a user-agent switcher for Firefox, and it makes most of the "Google Chrome only" webshites work instantly, if not then Edge still works.
