Is there a way to install applications published for Ubuntu or Debian onto Linux Mint?
Post Body
The publisher advertises Debian and Ubuntu packages, but not Mint.
The sudo apt-get install openswitcher command works on Ubuntu 23.04 and installed a .deb file, but when I try it on Cinnamon Mint 21.2 it says:
E: Unable to locate package openswitcher.
I'm guessing I need to add a new source in the Software Sources application to get access to Ubuntu apps?
Or should I forget about the .deb version and try to install the flatpak version of openswitcher instead?
