Beginners Questions • [Software] How to install regular FireFox (not ESR) in such a way so it updates automatically (Debian 11)

Today FF ESR had a big update, it jumped 12 versions and they also change the shortcut in the start menu from ''Firefox ESR'' to just ''Firefox'' so perhaps it couldn't be two entries with the same name so the shortcut of regular Firefox is gone... This is my guess. It makes me think if they can't manage the shortcuts right what about the rest of the things? Anyway if there is a way to restore the lost shortcut please tell me, I have located the executable

You now have firefox-esr from Mozilla repo rather than Debian. Stable version is still 115.15.0esr-1

Code:

$ apt list -a firefox-esrfirefox-esr/mozilla,now 128.2.0esr~build1 amd64 [installed]...firefox-esr/stable-security 115.15.0esr-1~deb12u1 amd64
In KDE you can right click the desktop menu icon and "Edit Applications" then rename the menu item to Firefox-ESR like it was before. For other DEs there's probably a similar method.
