I know you can play the game at chrome://dino, but it doesn't evoke the same nostalgic feeling of a 10yr old me turning on aeroplane mode and spamming space bar to try and beat my brother's high score. Good memories.

Install the flatpak version perhaps?

@Zyansheep The main problem with switching versions of Firefox is if you go backwards, i.e., if the flatpack is even one point release behind the existing, it's very difficult to get the existing profile to work. I've compiled my own version which seemed like the ultimate solution, then the version doesn't change unless I decide it does, but wasn't able to read my old profile which is a problem.

Huh... is flatpak consistency behind snap when it comes to updates?

@Zyansheep Also both have their same evils, instead of using system shared libraries (and thus sharing memory) they are bringing their own libraries. If every large application did that we'd need a terabyte of RAM in our PC's. Maybe a decade from now that will be affordable but beyond my budget at present.
