1. Add the apt repo
2. Add the repo's public key
3. apt-get update
4. apt-get install firefox
What 3 steps am I missing?

Counting “steps” is inane to begin with. Those could all be done with a one-liner, does that make it one step?

You could do this with a one-liner I suppose, but the Firefox guide still gives you 7 steps to accomplish something apt will do with a single command.

You are either trolling or you have a very fundamental lack of understanding for what those seven steps actually do and how package management works.

Am simply saying the alternative to doing this is a "one-click" apt-get install. Not sure why you have your panties in a twist.
