Let's say, I checked too many boxes and messed with the root directory. Anything that shows as "slow" is dangerous

root directory? why are you running bleachbit on linux??

[–] LostXOR@kbin.social 7 points 1 year ago

Probably for the same reason someone would run it on Windows. It has both a Windows and Linux version.

Why? To clean up left overs? You think Linux doesn't have that and is just all pink and unicorns? lol
