Re: New AppImage Installer GUI app +Flatpak Installer

Re: New AppImage Installer GUI app

I'd like to update ungoogled chromium.appimage (not to be found at github). How should i do this? If you have an .AppImage from somewhere that you want to update to, it is easy to do manually. 1. Download it to /mnt/wkg/appimage/ungoogledchromium 2. Change the symlink /usr/bin/ungoogledchromium.bin...

Re: EasyOS Dunfell-series version 4.2.2 released

Update to 4.2.3 went smoothly! Thank you Barry!
Themes in firefox & firefox in container don't persist after a reboot, whereas addons and boookmarks do.
Those installed and activated themes don't even seem to be downloaded after a reboot!?
