From there you click Firefox, then you click the download link it gives you on the next page, that downloads a file (still not installed) or takes you to an app store if you’re on a phone, you run that file or click install on the app store to actually install the application.
Great, you’re halfway there with that sarcasm. Now apply that to the comment chain you posted in and… hell why you’re here the post itself and you’ll get it now.
People still try to claim Linux is complicated and has a lot of unnecessary steps to install stuff and it just isn’t true for vast majority of people installing the vast majority of stuff.
Uh, maybe you’re not picking up the context clues here. I’m actively making fun of windows users. Blatantly even. The sarcasm is pretty one-sided toward the windows community. But thank you for trying to convert me to Linux. It’s been a fun 20 years and hopefully 20 more.
And rm won’t work either, since you (probably) don’t have files named - and rf, and then it will complain that / is a directory. And even if we correct that, you forgot to pass –no-preserve-root.

mozilla.org
yay -S firefox
Which is harder to type?
So going to mozilla.org then immediately installs firefox?
Yep, you should try it
It doesn’t and you know that.

Wow! That sounds complicated and seems like a lot of unnecessary steps

You’re right, I didn’t pick up on that after your first 2 comments in this chain.
To be fair, I’m guessing that most people will just type “Firefox” into Google and click the first link
“There’s no need to download a different browser”
mmh mozilla.org IMO
what do you do with the extra 2 seconds?
My wife.
2 whole seconds? You animal.

rmwon’t work either, since you (probably) don’t have files named-andrf, and then it will complain that/is a directory. And even if we correct that, you forgot to pass–no-preserve-root.Maybe they are being nice to people trying to test a random command from the internet.
