Firefox will continue to be distributed as .deb packages through the official Linux Mint repositories. Its configuration and the way it is built is changing to make the Linux Mint version of Firefox much more similar (almost identical in fact) to the version which is distributed by Mozilla.

In the past Linux Mint used its own default settings and configured Firefox in a specific way. Most of this configuration is abandoned to go back to Mozilla defaults.

The default start page no longer points to https://www.linuxmint.com/start/ The default search engines no longer include Linux Mint search partners (Yahoo, DuckDuckGo…) but Mozilla search partners (Google, Amazon, Bing, DuckDuckGo, Ebay…) The default configuration switches from Mint defaults to Mozilla defaults. Firefox no longer includes code changes or patches from Linux Mint, Debian or Ubuntu.

Just make sure you don't have an Nvidia card. Then all bets are out the window. Nouveau will hard freeze the system. Nvidia blobs may or may not work. Good luck.

Yes, but that's linux in general

On that sort of machine, it works perfectly fine https://www.aliexpress.com/item/32957197696.html

No graphic card needed (except if you use multiple gigantic screens you'll need one)
