Yes, but with a caveat.

I have used Linux for almost ten years at home. Recently there was an upgrade to Adobe and despite being current with all my updates, Adobe won’t upgrade in Firefox.

It’s ok I can access it aok using Chromium, but that is the first real issue I have encountered with Linux.

It seems to be a real issue as well. Got some pointers by a person quite familiar with Linux and he suggested the alternate browser.

That said, Linux is a very powerful operating system and it is free.

Adobe stopped supporting Flash for Linux, therefore, no updates in Firefox.

Chromium uses its own version of Flash that the project maintains — actually Google maintains it for the Chrome browser.
