sudo: apt-get: command not found

[9ice]

I'm trying to set up ipvanish on my steam deck, but when IO reach the sudo section, it spits out "sudo: apt-get: command not found"
Here's the command I'm trying to run on it: "sudo apt-get install -y openvpn network-manager-openvpn network-manager-openvpn-gnome"

i will also advice against discovery and flatpaks: flatpaks may work, but will eat your disk space fast. AppImages, even if they are large files, can be placed in external disks and dont need to be integrated to the os, unless you want to.

i ignore if theres something like openvpn available as appimage, but i guess that may be available as flatpak

like it or not flatpacks and appimages are the only legit way to download apps on deck. Every time you get an update it basically erases any files stored in system locked directories.
imagine your greatest nightmare being having to download an extra 50 megs of dependencies.

I find sudo dnf update works for everything now.
