Firefox on Ubuntu 22.04 Non Snap

In the latest Ubuntu they made Firefox a snap instead of just installing via deb. This walkthru tells you how to undo it.

In summary:

sudo snap remove firefox 

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:mozillateam/ppa

echo '
Package: *
Pin: release o=LP-PPA-mozillateam
Pin-Priority: 1001
' | sudo tee /etc/apt/preferences.d/mozilla-firefox

echo 'Unattended-Upgrade::Allowed-Origins:: "LP-PPA-mozillateam:${distro_codename}";' | sudo tee /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/51unattended-upgrades-firefox

sudo apt install firefox
