Install
macOS
| Apple Silicon | Intel | |
|---|---|---|
| DMG | Download | Download |
Or install via Homebrew:
brew install --cask donut
Windows
Download Windows Installer (x64) · Portable (x64)
Linux
| Format | x86_64 | ARM64 |
|---|---|---|
| deb | Download | Download |
| rpm | Download | Download |
| AppImage | Download | Download |
Or install via package manager:
curl -fsSL https://donutbrowser.com/install.sh | sh
Troubleshooting AppImage
If the AppImage segfaults on launch, install libfuse2 (sudo apt install libfuse2 / yay -S libfuse2 / sudo dnf install fuse-libs), or bypass FUSE entirely:
APPIMAGE_EXTRACT_AND_RUN=1 ./Donut.Browser_x.x.x_amd64.AppImage
If that gives an EGL display error, try adding WEBKIT_DISABLE_DMABUF_RENDERER=1 or GDK_BACKEND=x11 to the command above. If issues persist, the .deb / .rpm packages are a more reliable alternative.
