-OpenMC can be installed in a `conda` environment with `mamba`.
-First, `conda` should be installed with one of the following installers:
-`Miniconda <https://docs.conda.io/en/latest/miniconda.html>`_,
-`Anaconda <https://www.anaconda.com/>`_, or `Miniforge <https://github.com/conda-forge/miniforge>`_.

+with either Anaconda Distribution or Miniconda. Once you have `conda` installed
+on your system, OpenMC can be installed via the `conda-forge` channel.
 
 First, add the `conda-forge` channel with:
 
 .. code-block:: sh
 
     conda config --add channels conda-forge
+    conda config --set channel_priority strict
 
-Then create and activate a new conda enviroment called `openmc-env` in

 .. code-block:: sh
 
-    conda create -n openmc-env
+    conda create --name openmc-env openmc
     conda activate openmc-env
 
-Then install `mamba`, which will be used to install OpenMC.
-
-.. code-block:: sh
-
-    conda install mamba
-
-To list the versions of OpenMC that are available on the `conda-forge` channel,
-in your terminal window or an Anaconda Prompt run:
-
-.. code-block:: sh
-
-    mamba search openmc
-
-OpenMC can then be installed with:
