INSTALL PROGRAMS IN LINUX

There are many ways to install programs in Linux. I'm showing some of the most common ways in a Debian based distribution; PPA's, AppImages, FlatPaks, Snaps, Binary and .deb files. I also talk about how to make a .desktop file in case you run into a problem where your program doesn't show up in your menu...

How to create a .desktop file: https://www.maketecheasier.com/create-desktop-file-linux/

Insert your application name and use this code to move your .desktop file from your desktop to your system files: sudo mv applicationname.desktop /usr/share/applications

Remember our words of wisdom: Don’t drive drunk, don’t drink and drive, don’t buy crap off of Amazon or eBay (or MS Edge?)
because you’re all buzzed up and think you’re getting cool stuff. You’re probably not. Bottoms up, and later dudes!
