2024 is the Year of Linux on the Desktop, at least for my boyfriend. He’s running Windows 7 right now, so I’ll be switching him to Ubuntu in a few days. Ubuntu was chosen because Proton is officially supported in Ubuntu.

apt uses debians packages and debian repositories. Unless they recently created an alias or something, it should install debian packaged version!
I was under the impression the latest “firefox” package was a kind of “meta” package that caused the snap to get installed instead.
Certainly seems that way according to: https://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=firefox
Note that 22.04 is described as a transitional package to snap.
Apt does use debian packages (.deb files), but on ubuntu it uses ubuntus repositories.
Even worse than I thought, then :/
