The guide shows how to install LibreWolf on Ubuntu 22.04 or 20.04 quickly by downloading a .deb package from the official releases page and avoiding third‑party PPAs at first. It explains that you must ensure core libraries such as libdbus-1-3, libgtk-3-0, and others are installed before running dpkg, using a fallback to apt-get install -f if dependencies break. After installation you can confirm success by running librewolf --version, which should print the version number and prove the privacy‑focused browser is ready. An optional step adds the LibreWolf PPA for automatic updates, while a short anecdote demonstrates how switching from stock Firefox eliminated unwanted telemetry.

The guide walks Fedora users through pulling the latest Linux 6.1 kernel and explains why it’s worth the upgrade for new CPU support and power‑saving tweaks. It starts by nudging you to update your system and install dnf‑plugins‑core, then directs you to rpm‑fusion repositories so you can grab the mainline kernel packages that match your Fedora version. After installing, you can set the freshly installed 6.1 as the default GRUB entry with grubby or by editing the bootloader config, and then reboot to confirm with `uname -r`. The article also offers quick fixes for boot failures or hardware hiccups and reminds readers that older kernels remain available for fallback.

The guide walks readers through installing AnyDesk on Fedora 35‑37, noting that the software isn’t in the default repositories so you must pull the vendor’s RPM or use Flatpak instead. It begins by showing how to download the latest package with curl and then install it via dnf, adding a quick fix for missing libraries such as libqt5 and libX11 when those errors pop up. After installation, the article points out that SELinux may block the app initially, offering a temporary `setenforce 0` workaround and instructions to re‑enable enforcement once the program runs, while also suggesting how to verify the launch or check system logs for clues. Finally, it presents an alternative sandboxed method by installing AnyDesk from Flathub with Flatpak, highlighting that this keeps the application isolated and automatically updated without touching system libraries.
