I shopped at Tesco yesterday and was left extremely irritated - I had left my club card at home my trousers (changed clothes as warm and sunny). Without knowing that magic number you can’t use scan-as-you shop, but worse all the price labels taunt you about the substantial discounts giving up your privacy comes with. I bought only the essentials. I’d have picked Asda if I’d realised in time. #Tesco #Privacy #LoyaltyCards

HowTo: INSTALLING Browsers in Linux

Here we're going to cover the installation steps of Browsers in Linux - specifically, Debian GNU/Linux.

We're covering the procedural steps for this in Debian Testing (Forkey), which is already beginning the gleanings of what will become Debian 14. At the time of writing,the current kernel version is 7.0.13+deb14-amd64.

Daily drivers will likely be along the lines of Vivaldi, Firefox, Lagrange, and Brave Browser, and in no particular order. Any others will be mostly for particular reasons like, testing, curiosity, Etc., but some specialized products like the Tor browser, which focus on privacy are also covered. This list is by no means complete, but there's a bunch of them we cover, so let's jump right in!

I can haz #Cheezburgerz? 🍔 🍟

Well, let's see... First up is the first rate and fully featured Vivaldi, built on top of the open source Chromium, as are so many others in this list.

- Vivaldi

Manual setup of the Vivaldi Linux repos - According to their website, "you no longer need to do this. After downloading a Linux package and installing it our Linux update repositories will be configured automatically for you to receive updates."

That's awfully nice, so visit the download page above and get the .deb package:

~# mkdir -pv /usr/local/packages/vivaldi; cd /usr/local/packages/vivaldi
~# wget https://downloads.vivaldi.com/stable/vivaldi-stable_8.1.4087.48-1_amd64.deb
~# apt install ./vivaldi*.deb

- That's it! You're ready to go now.

Next up...

- Firefox
~# apt update && apt install firefox
- Brave Browser

~# apt install curl
~# curl -fsSLo /usr/share/keyrings/brave-browser-archive-keyring.gpg https://brave-browser-apt-release.s3.brave.com/brave-browser-archive-keyring.gpg
~# curl -fsSLo /etc/apt/sources.list.d/brave-browser-release.sources https://brave-browser-apt-release.s3.brave.com/brave-browser.sources
~# apt update && apt install brave-browser

- DuckDuckGo (on Android - There's no Linux port)
- Edge (For the sake of completeness in testing? For the love of God, WHY???)

~# mkdir -pv /usr/local/packages/edge; cd /usr/local/packages/edge # download Edge from the link above into this directory
~# apt install -y ./microsoft-edge-stable_147.0.3912.98-1_amd64.deb # or whatever version you downloaded.

- Lagrange

~$ apt update && apt install flatpak
~$ flatpak install flathub fi.skyjake.Lagrange

- Chromium

~# apt update && apt install chromium

- Opera

~# mkdir -pv /usr/local/packages/opera; cd /usr/local/packages/opera # Download from the link above, for example:
~# wget https://download3.operacdn.com/ftp/pub/opera/desktop/131.0.5877.5/linux/opera-stable_131.0.5877.5_amd64.deb
~# apt install -y ./opera-stable_131.0.5877.5_amd64.deb

Good Ole Lynx, Elinks, and Links. One should not be without at least a couple of these. you can surf HTTP, Gopher, and remain in a character based environment with Lynx, so the utility of testing is available quickly at your fingertips. Also included w3m.

~# apt install -y elinks elinks-data elinks-doc links links2 lynx lynx-common w3m w3m-img

Nyxt: For a more elegant take on the mostly character/CLI based options above you might wish to have this browser in your toolchest. Installing is simple as a FlatPak.

~$ flatpak install flathub engineer.atlas.Nyxt

GNOME Web - aka: Epiphany. Yes, this is the decendent of Galeon, the legacy of which began in 2000. Much of Galeons features were ported to Epiphany, which for whatever reason, is having an existential moment with respect to its name - Officially? It's now GNOME Web, but everywhere it says that, they also include the Epiphany name just so there's no confusion. Huh?

~# apt install epiphany-browser epiphany-browser-data

If you must call it "Web", that's fine, but even if you want to install it as a FlatPak you're going to be invoking Ephiphany, and that's what everyone still calls it anyway:

~$ flatpak install flathub org.gnome.Epiphany

Falkon. Formerly QupZilla, this browser received its new name in 2017 when it was picked up by KDE. With a simple, but modern, themable interface affording the user options resembling that of Firefox, Chrome, Windows, and Mac, it also comes bundled with AdBlock installed and enabled. There are several other features and extensions available including a PDF reader, GreaseMonkey,Tab extensions, Etc., which are available via the KDE store rather than Chrome or Firefox add-on marketplace.

~# apt install falkon

You can also install via Flathub:

~$ flatpak install flathub org.kde.falkon

Konqueror - The longtime File and Web Browser by KDE. It's probably already installed by default if you're running KDE, but if not here you go:

~# apt install konqueror konqueror-data konqueror-doc libkf6konq7 libkf6konqsettings7

And now for something truly special...

Chawan

~# mkdir -pv /usr/local/packages/chawan; cd /usr/local/packages/chawan
~# wget https://git.sr.ht/~bptato/chawan/refs/download/v0.3.3/chawan-0-3-3-amd64.deb
~# apt update && apt install ./chawan-0-3-3-amd64.deb

Alternatively:

~# mkdir -pv /usr/local/src/chawan; cd /usr/local/src/chawan
/usr/local/src/chawan# wget https://git.sr.ht/~bptato/chawan/refs/download/v0.3.3/chawan-0-3-3-linux-amd64.tar.xz
/usr/local/src/chawan# tar xvf chawan-0-3-3-linux-amd64.tar.xz
/usr/local/src/chawan# cd chawan-0-3-3-linux-amd64/
/usr/local/src/chawan/chawan-0-3-3-linux-amd64# make install

you can start with ~$ mancha cha

DESCRIPTION

Chawan is a text-mode browser. It can be used as a pager, or as a
web/(S)FTP/gopher/gemini/file browser. It understands HTML and CSS, and
when enabled by the user, can also execute JavaScript and display images
(on terminals supporting Sixel or the Kitty image protocol.)

   Chawan can also be used as a general text-based document viewer  as  de‐
   scribed  in  cha-mailcap(5),  or  as a hyperlinked man page viewer using
   mancha(1).

## TorBrowser

This one's a bit more of a chunk to bite into, only because if you're going to endeavor for such security, then you want to make sure to cross all the t's and dot all of the i's.

Import the Tor Browser Developers signing key

(0xEF6E286DDA85EA2A4BA7DE684E2C6E8793298290)

gpg --auto-key-locate nodefault,wkd --locate-keys torbrowser@torproject.org

Your output should look something like:

gpg: key 4E2C6E8793298290: public key "Tor Browser Developers (signing key) <torbrowser@torproject.org>" imported
gpg: Total number processed: 1
gpg:               imported: 1
      EF6E286DDA85EA2A4BA7DE684E2C6E8793298290
uid           [ unknown] Tor Browser Developers (signing key) <torbrowser@torproject.org>

Now that you've imported the key, you can save it to a file, identifying it by the fingerprint above:

~$ mkdir -pv ~/packages/tor; cd ~/packages/tor
~/packages/tor$ gpg --output ./tor.keyring --export 0xEF6E286DDA85EA2A4BA7DE684E2C6E8793298290

From the Tor Project's download page HERE, download the .asc OpenPGP signature file and the TorBrowser package tarball:

~/packages/tor$ wget https://www.torproject.org/dist/torbrowser/15.0.11/tor-browser-linux-x86_64-15.0.11.tar.xz.asc

~/packages/tor$ wget https://www.torproject.org/dist/torbrowser/15.0.11/tor-browser-linux-x86_64-15.0.11.tar.xz

NOTE: At the time of writing, these were the current files downloaded, the filenames will almost certainly have changed by the time you download them, so the tarball and signature file will have different names - adjust accordingly. We'll continue using those filenames below.

Now we verify the veracity of the package's tarball using the .asc signature file like so:

~/packages/tor$ gpgv --keyring ./tor.keyring ~/packages/tor/tor-browser-linux-x86_64-15.0.11.tar.xz.asc ~/packages/tor/tor-browser-linux-x86_64-15.0.11.tar.xz

Your output should confirm a "Good signature":

gpgv: Signature made Tue 28 Apr 2026 02:01:23 AM PDT
gpgv:                using RSA key CAAE408AEBE2288E96FC5D5E157432CF78A65729
gpgv: Good signature from "Tor Browser Developers (signing key) <torbrowser@torproject.org>"

Now we explode the archive:

~/packages/tor$ tar xvf tor-browser-linux-x86_64-15.0.11.tar.xz

Let's give it a go, shall we?

~/packages/tor$ cd tor-browser
~/packages/tor/tor-browser$ ./start-tor-browser.desktop --register-app
Tor Browser has been registered as a desktop app for this user in ~/.local/share/applications/

You'll notice that the permissions of ./start-tor-browser.desktop are set to 700 - It has only been installed for you and you alone. I would recommend that everyone install their own but if that seemed like too much hassle for you to begin with, we can just install it system-wide for everyone, with the following two commands:

~# apt update
~# apt install -y torbrowser-launcher

## Summary, and why

I know I know, I always seem to put the tl;dr's at the very end, but that's only because it humors me :p In this case, however, it really is best if the Tor Browser is installed individually for each and every user account that is going to use it.

Why do I usually put the tl;dr's at the very end of my articles? Because I've observed that the impatient among us are inclined to break something anyway for lack of patience and understanding, and if you really think about it, we've learned a lot today, going over each step and most of the time, why we did it that way.

Even so, when you get to the end there's this nice fluffy and quick way to accomplish your task quickly, and you can do it a hundred times now because you understand the whole thing. On the other hand, the people who just want the tl;dr are typically one of two types of folks - they've got a great handle on things and only need just bare syntax, or.... they're the kind of folks who, when assigned a book to read, start by reading the last couple of pages, then think they're ready for the book report.

For that last group of people, isn't putting the tl;dr at the very end where they really expect to find it anyway?

## Parting Thoughts

Not all of the products that we've covered the installation for today are FOSS. Many aren't even Open Source. We're trying to be complete with all of the various applications in the browser spectrum that people may wish to use - for even the most obscure above, tens of thousands of people use it as their daily driver, or as a particular tool for a job that they perform every day.

I'm going to explain why I decided to include one browser in particular. Years ago...

Microsoft's current version for Windows Internet Exploder was either 3.01b or 3.02b at the time, and this was the only time that I've ever seen this - so I actually have a copy of this browser. In my wanderings across this planet I've seen people complain over the years about there not being any Internet Explorer for Linux, and indeed, this is the case. In fact, in my experience, I've never seen a port of Internet Explorer for any of the Unices (Apple products excepted), until one day when I was installing a Sun Enterprise server running Solaris. I just happened to notice when looking through the files that I saw the rarest of all creatures...

A lone Internet Exploder, version 3.02b (or maybe 3.01b) for Solaris! For Solaris? Why? No, not really why? but given the proof that they could have a port for Linux at anytime and haven't, yet they cozy up to Sun Microsystems and offer a port of Explorer that is supported on Solaris. WoW!

I quickly fell into a state of perplexity. Why Solaris and no one else? Why not Linux? Why not AIX or HP-UX? Why bother at all if they're not going to make it available for Linux and the BSDs too, and I thought long and hard about this.

I still do, and I have a lot of answers. None of which are truly acceptable. Yes, Ballmer called Linux a cancer, now they hug it like a redwood tree. But think of what could have been.

So... Why did I include Microsoft Edge here in this article?

I was being charitable, as I continue looking down my nose at Redmond, dismissively, disparagingly, with just a tinge of a smile containing just a hint of my condescension.

I'll probably continue to add a browser package here and there to this article when I feel it's warranted. There are a lot, and this only covers the most popular and it was good to get these out of the way so perhaps I can tend to the more obscure or peculiar at some other point in time.

I hope that helps!

Within EU is now discussed Chat Control. My take on it: private one-on-one chats should remain private, but I would focus on chat groups. Those could be analyzed for security purposes, the discussion being upwards how many members. Should it be 5 or 10 or more? Bigger groups can be used for malicious intent, therefore the measures could make sense. The chat control could be also random, not for every single message or media shared, with ofc the possibility to report. Just so it discourages ill intentions, but still keep conversations private to a certain extent. Maybe a flag, if medias are repeatedly shared over many groups. Where do you draw the line on #privacy of your #message and what is #private , what is #public ? When does one piece of information become public?
