this is why niche stuff on fedi is so funny sometimes. especially when a corporate entity tried to approach it, in the most corporate way lol.

I never use nixos, but I just got intrusive thought to make that command get invoked automatically every time the config file is modified.

is it not making someone fix generated project is a massive work rather than building smething from the ground up?

I had a project where I was supposed to clean up a generated 3D model. It has messed up topology, some missing parts, unintelligible shapes. It made me depressed cleaning it up.

few of them was simple enough for me to rebuild the mesh from the ground up following the shape, as if I’m retopologizing. But the more complex ones have that unintelligible shapes that I can’t figure what that is or the flow of the topology.

If I was given more time & pay I could rebuild all of that my own way so I understand every vertices exist in the meshes. But oh well that contradicts their need of quick & cheap.

It never work. I’ve always done flatpak remove --unused every once in a while. At one time I checked my root filesystem using gnome’s disk analyzer to see what takes the most space, that is when I found out /var/lib/flatpak/repo/ ate 80 gb of my disk.

As per several suggestion from github issues & forums, I did sudo flatpak repair and finally it did clean them up down to around 40-50. Several months later I kind of gone mad and delete everything in the repo directory. I noticed my apps still works. Until few days later when I wanted to update, Flatpak complained and redownload most of the deleted stuff 🤣

But after redownloading, it only took around 20 gb now, and after that Flatpak also pinned every package lmao so I have to unpin unimportant stuff any case they can be deleted using flatpak remove --unused

and I seem to be not the only one, like this person has their Flatpak directories almost 100 gb https://forums.linuxmint.com/viewtopic.php?t=435450

I realize I may also just remove all latex stuff, I was only using it to graduate. I’d just typst now for smaller things.

carelessly lots of stuff. kde & gnome developmnt runtimes. nvidia driver duplicates. Firefox, Librewolf & Ungoogled Chrome. full latex packages. Ardour and various syntesizer.

I eventually cleaned up most packages out of Flatpak to DNF, especially the one that require big runtime and gtk/qt apps or does’t need sandboxing. I may also avoid electron apps since they also tend to be big lol.

Flatpaks apps & their runtimes is taking 20 gb, was 80 gb before I realize it and start cleaning up. That’s annoying. But I also like Flatpak. I may just prioritize DNF first (I’m on Fedora) to minimize Flatpak bloats.

60 gb is very significant for me being in 256 gb ssd.

I realized the lids are not wrong just not placed in the right spot.
