I noticed while updating my system just how many packages I have installed that I don’t recognize.
I tend to think that minimalism is better for security, so I’d like to remove any packages that I’m not using, but this is a bit of a scary task.
Does anybody have a safe method for reviewing and purging unused or bloat packages while obviously making sure not to accidentally remove important dependencies?
I’m on arch btw.
apt autoremove
does nothing on Arch.Well whatever the equivalent is lol, I didn’t see the last little line on the post.
That’s just the thing, though. There is no equivalent on Arch.
