            Arch puns. As an Arch user, I admit this is hilarious.

            I use Arch btw.

      The real trick is to not install anything, because Firefox comes pre-installed on most Linux distros.

          I miss the days when they shipped Iceweasel.

          And ESR kinda sucks if you want an updated browser.

        You mean “pre-installed with most DEs”…

          Well, I wanted to express that it may differ between distros, but fair point that Firefox won’t be pre-installed on the server flavors of those distros.

          I think it’s just distros that choose if they pre-install Firefox, not DEs.

          KDE on Arch didn’t install Firefox, but Kubuntu came with Firefox the last time I installed it.

      I always thought apt and apt-get is the same thing so why type more when you can less?

      But then again, I’m a linux noob that only uses distros like Ubuntu.

      I also like the software center thing in Ubuntu because of GUI and… um… why do I see a bunch of people with pitchforks?

        apt is a newer tool that combines the functionality of apt-get and apt-cache. It’s not as backwards compatible but has a nicer more human readable output

          apt is a wrapper of a wrapper for dpkg.

            That’s like dnf is a wrapper for yum which is a wrapper for rpm.
