I run Fossapup64-CE which has glibc version 2.31

For anyone interested, the slimjet v 44.02 appimage works fine for me.

Sorry - my mistake. It is not the appimage - I was confusing it with something else I was doing at the time.

It is simply the .deb package from their download site - https://www.slimjet.com/en/dlpage.php

Anyway - after extracting into a directory it works fine - except for playing videos. I resolved that by replacing the version of ffmpeg in the .deb package by downloading the latest ffmpeg from https://github.com/nwjs-ffmpeg-prebuilt ... t/releases and all tested fine.

Apology for the confusion.

Thanks.- With your guide I uploaded slimjet to version 44.-

Updated libffmpeg and now it is working.

Thanks a lot for your suggestion (each moment I am more sure slimjet is the best browser for EasyOS, it is full of options)
