New Linux user here. Is this really how I'm supposed to install apps on Linux? - eviltoast

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.

    Change your distribution to MX Linux and use MX Package Installer there. Select Mullvad VPN from “Popular Apps” tab there and MXPI will do all these steps for you.
