For anyone trying to install Brave Browser on Void Linux, cross-post from Reddit

Installing Brave Browser on Void Linux

For anyone curious in the future:

Yes, you can relatively easily install brave browser on void linux, if that is somehow a non-negotiable for you fear not. There are three methods that I am aware of:

  1. Add this template file to your fork of void-packages locally and build the ./xbps-src package like any other.

  2. Use flatpak, which I need not explain since instructions are on the flathub listing itself. (Note: will be isolated from the system which can be a bit of a pain, especially using things like keepassxc)

Responding to a Newbie Question from Reddit, I wrote out the script instead of being a jerk and having the person do it themselves with tedious instructions. Was great practice.
#!/bin/bash
echo "Path to the directory you would like to copy the names of the files to clipboard from please"
read DIR
ls $DIR > /tmp/names.txt
xclip -sel clip /tmp/names.txt
rm /tmp/names.txt
