How do I change from 8.8.8.8 and 4.4.4.4 to something else? There are 3 listed when issuing nmcli dev show | grep DNS I entered the ones that I want to "Addtional DNS servers" but doesn't work. Did a nmcli dev show | grep DNS. It still showed 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 and another one. Why are...

This is what I was trying to get at.

So those suggestions are not facts.

The question is a combination of the subject and the question "Why are there users using Brave and giving rave reviews and suggestions?" So I should revise that, Brave is not in the repository, why are there users using Brave and not say Brave is different and can be retrieved that way. No...

Why are there users using it and giving rave reviews and suggestions? This question is only referring to Mint and not other Operating Systems. Asked but have never gotten an answer about what's the difference between using the CLI to transport and getting it directly from the repository? At...

I did sudo apt install firejail. It still shows 9.62; it didn't upgrade the version to 9.66 I guess it would then be a "never mind" case for firejail when using LW. Should I wipe out my Mint and redo? The system seems messy now.

Is Mint the same as Ubuntu?

So the important theme here that everyone has been saying so many times is that nothing should be retrieved outside and anything outside can't be trusted. You can only trust what is in the repositories. So Brave is not in the repositories. So it would make sense to put Brave in the repositories...

@Condobloke @Leonardo_B So how did you get Brave? You said you are using Brave, and it is not in the repositories.

I was able to use Firejail Librewolf when I had the appimage. I deleted the appimage and got LW from the flatpak. I got the same errors as the following before: https://linux.org/threads/firejail-librewolf-error.36406/ When issuing the terminal command "firejail librewolf", the first lines of...

If LW is an appimage then what is the difference among LW, Vivaldi, and Brave? Brave and Vivaldi are not in the default repositories.

Why is Mr. Switched to Linux telling others that Librewolf is the way to go? I now have to wipe out my system and redo Linux Mint.

Not sure why then everyone one is harping about how Evil Google is. So Google Chrome and its search engine are not so bad after all.

No one here is recommending Librewolf browser from the following post: https://linux.org/threads/is-online-banking-secure-on-mint-20-2.36700/ Is it because of the appimage? Is it as safe as what is provided in the repositories.

Is it possible for others to remote access into my system? How do I know if someone is doing the remote access to my system? Is there something that blocks this remote access? (Linux Mint 20.2)

Testing...

WINE is not suggested per this https://easylinuxtipsproject.blogspot.com/p/security.html#ID3

You mean go back to Windows? So the answer is no to going to those websites and start downloading. That's a limitation with Linux.

Linux Mint: Fastone and the other one is mtPaint Is Paint for Windows only?
