Should I try Keychron
you can download an installer from their github repository and install VIA onto your PC to use fully offline without a web browser

Cannot use FN + Number keys
Fn keys are generally determined by the keyboard's firmware not the OS. I have multiple 65% keebs from the likes of Ducky, Durgod & Keychron, all work just fine on Linux. You haven't said what your keyboard is but see if it's supported by via (use the appimage package) and test.

"Received invalid protocol version from device" and "Device must be open first" errors on VIA after updating firmware on K3 Pro RGB ISO
There is also a desktop version.

Hello, so I just received my K10 Pro today, but I keep on getting errors when I try to use VIA. Is this normal? Thanks!
I was able to get this working by installing the desktop version of VIA as suggested here. I am running Debian, so YMMV.

How do I download VIA for Linux?
New to Linux so sorry if I'm a noob. I'm trying to install Via through the terminal, but I'm unsure of the package name. Also, I have the link to the GitHub page, but is installing an App Image the same as installing through a terminal?

Using VIA without Internet
I'm running a macOS Monterey computer without any Internet access whatsoever so I downloaded VIA from https://github.com/the-via/releases/releases using another laptop but everytime I run the app on my Mac all I get is a blank white screen. I've noticed that there's a connection attempt to usevia.app (104.21.58.242 or 172.67.166.71) during app launch. I've tried several versions of VIA going back to 2.0.5 but I can't seem to get the app to work. Is an Internet connection actually required to just re-map keys?

I think you can still download the standalone via app, but they won't ever update it. https://github.com/the-via/releases/releases

QMK version
qmk --version give you the version of the qmk commandline tool, which is different from the qmk_firmware repo (don't think that's meaningfully tagged/released as such). the qmk command's sources can be found here: https://github.com/qmk/qmk_cli
