minus-square@Treczokslink1•7 hours agoShort: Yes, of course. Long: Well, this is really a long answer, depending on your needs…
minus-square@[email protected]OPlinkfedilink1•edit-27 hours agoI’m only needed to run any apps that has bloat/redundant dependencies so I can remove it anytime I want without screwing up my entire OS ;D
minus-square@treesoidlink3•7 hours agoMaybe check out nix. It can be installed on any distro and if you install (temporarily but cached) the app trough nix shell you can then just clean the dependencies with nix store gc.
