What use to be the PPA that allowed Ubuntu users to use native .deb packages for Firefox has recently changed to the same meta package that forces installation of Snap and the Firefox snap package.
I am having to remove the meta package, then re-uninstall the snap firefox, then re-uninstall Snap, then install pin the latest build I could get (firefox_116.0.3+build2-0ubuntu0.22.04.1~mt1_arm64.deb) to keep the native firefox build.
I’m so done with Ubuntu.
Nix has “over 80 000 packages,” according to their website. The AUR has 85719, so they’re pretty close. This website seems out of date, as the AUR is listed as having 73914 packages, but it says that Nix is bigger. Either way, there’s a lot.
