Mozilla now has an official Debian repository for running the latest Firefox releases.

This is specifically to provide a native package that isn’t a snap. RPMs are not the hell that is snaps.
I switched over immediately on my in work machine
Great to hear! Snaps are a really bad approach to universal packaging from canonical.
I hate snaps and flatpacks equally. They really cause more problems than they solve for new users.
It’s also for Debian Stable/Testing users who only have ESR in their repos.
You can set up APT pinning and pull it from Sid, but I prefer not to fuck with official repos other than Backports. Even then, only if I really need to.
Fair point! I really wish there was a native Firefox build for Arm too.
