I only have Chromium installed to act as a backup option if Firefox decides
to fail.

Whether or not you use Chromium is up to you. If it works for you, fine,
use it :)

I'm not sure how familiar you are with the snap commands.

To see a list of installed snaps, use:
$ snap list

To find out about recent snap modifications, use:
$ snap changes

The "sudo" in a command is only necessary if the command requires
s"superuser" / root privileges.

HTH,


Ian
