   cd ~   
   ls -a   
   	(bunch of stuff)   
   	.mozilla   
   	(bunch more stuff)   
   cd .mozilla   
   ls   
   	extensions   
      
   No sign of Firefox (nor TB, but that's probably in snap).   
      
   In all, this is pointless. I will try something different, whether   
   it's Ubuntu 24.04, or Linux Mint, which I am currently downloading.   
      
   More later, thanks for help.
