Trying to install VPN and these are the instructions Mullvad is giving me. This is ridiculous. There must be a more simple way. I know how to follow the instructions but I have no idea what I’m doing here. Can’t I just download a file and install it? I’m on Ubuntu.

- Am not promoting Linux, I don’t know where you got that idea from.
- How is it hostility when am letting OP know that’s exactly what’s included in the package when he chose Linux? And that unlike Windows where you install downloaded files as programs, things work differently over here?
- You can install malware by blindly copypasting commands on any terminal, the OS doesn’t matter.

Because you chose to phrase it as an insult. “To keep people like you from doing X” has a very different connotation than “this is a security feature that helps protect inexperienced users from malware.” One is helpful, one is demeaning.
