I needed to reinstall Firefox on this computer, so I started up Chrome to download the latest version and it blocked the download as unsafe! I had to manually tell it to download anyway.

Fuck Chrome. I'm glad I only used it to download one file and went back to Firefox.

I didn't get it from work. It's my personal machine. I just used it when I had a hybrid schedule. But I don't log in with that account because it doesn't exist anymore since I don't work there anymore.

Gotcha

Perhaps the download was corrupted? Like maybe the checksum didn’t match. Did it happen a second time or after you did a force refresh?

[–] [email protected] 8 points 11 months ago (2 children)

Actually, the second time I did it on a Macbook. A separate machine. However, they are both Intel Macs, so they are older and running an older OS (Monterey). Could that be it?

So far the browsers all seem to be universal apps, and I’d bet they stay that for many years.

My rule of thumb is that an issue isn’t an issue until it affects at least 10% of the fleet. Before then, it’s a fluke and not worth investigating.

I think you had a fluke. Seems like it’s worked for you since then.

For future reference, the correct way to install Firefox on a Mac is brew install --cask firefox, not downloading it manually like some troglodyte.

Edit: unamused downvoters be like:

Sorry, folks, I was trying to make a joke, not an insult!

[–] [email protected] 1 points 11 months ago

Or you could use nixos-darwin. But yeah if that was a joke I missed it far
