![]() Seriously thanks so much mw / brent and the others for the detailed info and explanations and even instructions that is so awesome of you. I had Solus 4.2 on a USB stashed away and it saved my PC so I'm here to stay. Solus was always my fallback option if Arch broke, which I kinda expected it to. ![]() On arch I simply used "yay" command and that handled it all at once- if only there was such a command on Solus to upgrade everything but I'm still learning. I'll take the advice to stick with the trinity only (eopkg primarily & flatpak/snap) and update them once a week or so. Ungoogled Chromium es Chromium tras eliminar todo el cdigo que apunta a los servidores de Google, siendo algo as como una 'versin tonta' de Chrome, totalmente aislada de Google y con algn. Installed flatpak and installed ungoogled there and this version works fine. Apparently the way around it is to use the flatpak version. I should have probably titled this post "are there other package managers besides software manager available for solus" it would have saved lots of meandering on my end □įor some reason ungoogled from Snapstore gave me issues, something to do with no-sandbox flags causing bugs and opening new instances each time. Thank you for pointing me in the right direction (& apologies for the naivety □) I'll stick with Software Center & Snap Store. But honestly finding out Snap Store has its own GUI to handle such things resolves my concerns. I exclusively used yay via terminal to install and update everything, in an effort to keep it stable. I'm here from a broken Arch install after 2 months (6/7/21 - 8/9/21 RIP). But I think I'll go with Ungoogled considering development seems much quieter on Libre's side, I can hardly find people talking about or using it. No autoupdates for either on Windows/Mac, for some reason. Honestly I'm probably the last person who needs such a fortressy browser like Librewolf or Ungoogled but I like the peace-of-mind they provide, and the superficial idea that it makes me feel like I'm getting the most out of my Linux installation. Ungoogled and Heroic (Epic) Launcher are the only apps I need that aren't in the main repos. With Firefox, that risk doesn't exist because of the business motivations of the company that develops it.I was under the impression the Snap/flatpak methods were just ways to do a quick local install of app packages, I assumed I would have to constantly be checking manually for updates myself. Google may at any time change Chromium so substantially as to either require Google integration at some fundamental level for even the most basic functionality, causing too much work for such a low-profile effort to continue, or just make Chromium closed-source. IMO it's also worth noting that ungoogled-chromium is (obviously) an unofficial fork of Chromium. Until Google inexplicably restored it a few days later, but not before lots of accusations were thrown around. This notably happened with Pushbullet quite recently: Until Google decides that your extension is unworthy of being in their store. >Extension support for Chromium is way better too Stock Firefox doesn't actually have that much bloat, and it's not noticeably slower than Chrome on reasonably modern hardware (i.e.: most page loads are near-instant, same as in Chrome on a good connection).
