Omg, me too. 🫂
Welcome to the business!
Holly heavens! You have created something I couldn't even see in my most enlightened visions
How I feel after removing the system itself (it was all bloat) (I can now live a carefree life, free of computers)
The root folder contains mostly everything, including the system
I usually just eat the system
I usually just eat the hard drives, I don't like the taste of the batteries and the capacitors
I mean the physical system
The time I sudo chown -R conc:conc / because why bother with perms
Good enough for MS-DOS, good enough for me.

first time trying Linux, installed Ubuntu. Over a few months I made a few mistakes but nothing major... untill I tried to delete VLC. Saw on some random forum that something called MKV was better. Googled how to delete a package and it turns out I deleted every dependency for VLC and not VLC itself. Totally nuked everything.
Did something similar when I was still learning Linux. Had some issue with Python. Decided to reinstall it. Did a force remove and my computer restarted immediately. I was brought back into a shell but basically nothing worked right. Turns out Python is a dependency for a lot of things in Ubuntu. Who knew? :D
Is that what Norman's hair is supposed to look like in the comics?
You feel like Willem DaRapper?
I feel as if I have achieved something great, something extraordinary
I literally just tonight tried to move some virtual disks and mounts around on a VM and caused it to become unbootable.
Luckily I had all the important configs backed up with rclone so it was easier to just recreate the VM for me.
The ultimate debloating
500GB drive costs what? About $40?
It was never about the money
I usually just eat the hard drive
Just think of all the hentai you can fit on the drive once you delete all the bloat!
I can delete system32 folder on archlinux and run sudo rm -rf /* on windows

How i feel after removing all the bloat from my system (i own a mac and deleted my downloads folder)
How can you use a mac? It feels like a really unoptimised gnome, and your keyboard is all messed up
Scooping up a root folder alias without noticing and dumping it in the trash icon.
