Instructions in Brave website for Fedora Atomic probably wrong

I tried installing Brave in Fedora Atomic 43, GNOME, new OS install, I tried in two different computers following the code given by Brave https://brave.com/linux/ and in both cases nothing happened. I asked Google AI and it provided me with the right code as it worked in both computers.

The main difference is that Brave says to use “run0” and Google AI told me the same line but with sudo instead and no run0 I am posting what worked for me, and what Google AI says must be done, the code written in your website did nothing.

Installation Steps:

  1. Add the repository:
    sudo curl -fsSLo /etc/yum.repos.d/brave-browser.repo https://brave-browser-rpm-release.s3.brave.com/brave-browser.repo

  2. Install the package:
    rpm-ostree install brave-browser

Reboot

Have you tried the one-line installation command at the top of https://brave.com/linux/?

curl -fsS https://dl.brave.com/install.sh | sh

I didn’t try that line I jumped straight to the instructions provided by Brave for the distribution I am using and it does not work, I no longer need help installing Brave, I am only providing feedback and information on how to reproduce this if anybody wants to try and verify it.

Thanks. I have updated our instructions to remove the second run0. I have confirmed that it (now) works in a VM.
