The command-line approach offers a way to install SuperiorOS without trusting our server infrastructure. This requires being on an OS with proper fastboot and signify packages along with understanding the process enough to avoid blindly trusting the instructions from our site. For most users, the web-based installation approach is no less secure and avoids needing any software beyond a browser with WebUSB support.
Officially supported browsers for the web install method:
Chromium (outside Ubuntu, since they ship a broken Snap package without working WebUSB)
Google Chrome
Microsoft Edge
Brave (with Brave Shields disabled, since it caps storage usage at a low value to avoid fingerprinting available storage)
You should avoid Flatpak and Snap versions of browsers, as they're known to cause issues during the installation process.
Make sure your browser is up-to-date before proceeding.
Do not use Incognito or other private browsing modes. These modes usually prevent the web installer from having enough storage space to extract the downloaded release.
