I only recently found appimaged.  Trying to manually edit .desktop

fruitful.
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.

How soon will this boogieman be expunged from your ken?

Before it was "hippie", now it's "wokie"(!).
