After creating a fresh installation of Ubuntu 24.04, I installed DEB Firefox from APT by following Mozilla’s instructions from here. But I noticed that it was secretly replaced with Snap Firefox. I was able to verify this by checking the About Firefox page. This is the third time I noticed this.

    Yes. That was the last straw for me. I switched to debian stable, and haven’t looked back since

      Debian will have snaps and flatpaks and all the same insecure black-box drek.

      Given how much they violate ISO27002, I can’t see them ever being run in a regs-compliant shop.
