New Linux user here. Is this really how I'm supposed to install apps on Linux?

Trying to install VPN and these are the instructions Mullvad is giving me. This is ridiculous. There must be a more simple way. I know how to follow the instructions but I have no idea what I'm doing here. Can't I just download a file and install it? I'm on Ubuntu.

My favorite part of this thread is everyone just saying copy and paste the commands so it will work. Like we should totally get users into the habit of running random commands off the net as root.
I mean I agree that this is a new user nightmare, but we've been conditioning people for 30 years to download and run random .EXE files as admin too.
The random Exe downloads for Windows to update drivers kills me. Users are conditioned to accept it without complaint.
