Aside from palemoon, etc., I don't install third-party packages. These browsers, palemoon, vivaldi, etc., are stand-alone items, nothing added. I don't update them until necessary, so their repositories are not enabled in my sources.list. And I might add, if I didn't have palemoon, for example, I would not have been able to use an internet browser at all, unless by booting into the XFCE desktop.
