Ubuntu is really bad with this. Installing npm pulls adwaita icon theme, xorg and half the gnome desktop for some reason.

Thank you!

apt-get is used in scripting.

apt isnt recommended to be used in scripting.

Fair lol.

I’d suggest trying to always use the apps in the same workspaces. I always open discord spotify steam in the leftmost workspace, firefox in the rightmost and the 3-4 ides i have open in the middle each on its own. Makes navigating through them a second nature in no time.

You needed to replace the workstation release identity package with the plasma release identity one. I don’t remember the exact names but that will let you uninstall all gnome packages.

You can just switch to kde or xfce if you dont like gnome, thats what linux is all about. For one I cant really use anything not-gnome anymore, its workflow feels just so efficient and is equally good with a touchpad, keyboard and mouse. I usually get distracted really easily on kde and the likes but gnome just gets out of the way and lets me focus more on my work.

you guys are not distrohopping every day?!?

I won’t delete my account, atleast not in the foreseeable future. Won’t install the official app though and stop using reddit on mobile entirely. There’s just so much resources and old content available on reddit, and a lot that I’ve saved, that’s next to impossible to migrate anywhere. I’ll keep my account for that, and just that so I can access it when I need to.
