I mean I tried to download the official minecraft client for debian and was not able to on Firefox.

Microsoft disabled the site on non Chrome browser

This sounded weird to me, so I just tried it. Running Firefox on Kubuntu, I just downloaded it with one click from here.

Well didn't work for me on debian

Just tried it myself and it doesn't have any issues at all. It seems like it might be an issue with something else on your end.

Though honestly I'd strongly recommend against using the Official launcher as it has been known to introduce bugs and in general has poorer support for mods. I prefer the MultiMC forks like Prism, which don't have the bugs the official one does.

I wanted sth that is updated by my system and the flatpak I found logged me in as a unsecure user or I had to login at each launch

user agent switching is fortunately not too difficult to do.

Are you sure? I just tested and after logging in, the option to download the launcher was there (popos/firefox).

Maybe my adblocker is the issue
