As a follow-up to someone else's question here I was wondering if someone could help me by walking me through an install of ungoogled chromium via binaries. I am a total ubuntu newbie, and most of you will probably laugh but where do I start? Here are the binaries, as another user pointed out, in aforementioned question.

I tried building this locally following their instructions (github), but I think because I have an older machine (8gb RAM) I ran up against a wall, computer froze twice.

I also have tried dpkg-buildpackage -b -uc in the directory where I've downloaded all these binaries - and a ton of researching.

Which files do I need from that binaries list, where should I put them, and how to install from them?

Thanks for your time!

If you want to install one of these binaries, you just need to download the latest one:

wget https://github.com/riyad/ungoogled-chromium-binaries/releases/download/71.0.3578.98-2/ungoogled-chromium-common_71.0.3578.98-2.cosmic_amd64.deb

And then, install it using: 

sudo apt install ./ungoogled-chromium-common_71.0.3578.98-2.cosmic_amd64.deb

Good luck.
