The Arduino IDE v2 is an appimage and after I installed the daemon it
showed up. I was somewhat surprised that just downloading the LibreWolf
file kicked the process off. I like things that just work.

 
I'll have to install it. I think I already have it on the computer that runs
Linux Mint 22.

By the way, you probably should know that LibreWolf have revealed
themselves to be very woke.

I installed it using the repository method. I don't like that it doesn't
keep track of things, like maximizing your window at startup, or your zoom
or theme settings for specific sites. They say this is for security, but it
seems like it's a little too much — at least for my taste.

I had no idea that LibreWolf was Woke. I pretty much figure I won't be able
to use much of anything if I look into the Woke factor too deeply for the
applications I want to use.

Now I see that they declare themselves to be "very Woke," so another reason
to kick them to the curb.

So much for LibreWolf.
