I’m on fedora Silverblue and just saw that firefox is still on 118 whereas 120 is about to be released.

I found https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/firefox which says that on fedora 39 firefox is on 119 yet it isn’t on my machine.

    Somehow there’s a .desktop file clash which I can’t resolve

    I rebased to rawhide for now where firefox is on 120

      There’s a command to hide the Silverblue/RPM of Firefox & change your default browser to the Flatpak’d Firefox in GNOME settings:

      sudo mkdir -p /usr/local/share/applications/

sudo cp /usr/share/applications/firefox.desktop /usr/local/share/applications/

sudo sed -i "2a\\NotShowIn=GNOME;KDE" /usr/local/share/applications/firefox.desktop

sudo update-desktop-database /usr/local/share/applications/

      Or can remove Firefox and Firefox Language Packs as a custom layer:

      rpm-ostree override remove firefox-langpacks firefox Universal Blue images remove it from the image entirely and has FF flatpak out of box.
