Install a Browser
As a new user to Linux, the first few things you may want to do is get things set up to continue with your daily life. The first of those is to install a browser.
Browsers
FireFox
Most Linux distributions come packaged with FireFox out of the box, but installing it is very simple.
Installation
Debian:
sudo apt install firefox
Arch:
sudo pacman -S firefox
Uninstalling
Debian:
sudo apt remove firefox
Arch:
sudo pacman -Rdd firefox
Chromium
Chromium is an open-source broswer which is nearly identical in nature to Google Chrome. It is easier than Chrome to install, due to its open-source nature, and provides nearly the same functionality as Google Chrome.
Installation
Debian:
sudo apt install chromium
Arch:
sudo pacman -S chromium
Uninstalling
Debian:
sudo apt remove chromium
Arch:
sudo pacman -Rdd chromium
Google Chrome
Google Chrome doesn't by default have as easy a set up as FireFox and Chromium, but is still fairly simple to install.
Installation
Debian:
cd /tmp (creating a temporary install file)
wget https://dl.google.com/linux/direct/google-chrome-stable_current_amd64.deb (download the .deb file for the latest Chrome)
sudo dpkg -i google-chrome-stable_current_amd64.deb (use dpkg to install Chrome from the .deb file you downloaded)
Arch:
cd installs
Get the 'Git Clone URL' link from here
git clone PUT THE LINK HERE
cd google-chrome
makepkg -si
Uninstalling
Debian:
sudo dpkg -r google-chrome-stable
Arch:
sudo pacman -Rdd google-chrome
Brave
