    I mean it’s 2024. I regularly download archives that are several tens or even over 100 GB and then completely forget they’re sitting on my drive, because I don’t notice it when the drive is 4TB. Last time I cared about 10GB here and there was in the late-2000s.

      Great that you have 4tb on your root partition then by all means use flatpack.

      I have 256Gb on my laptop, as I recall I provisioned about 40-50gigs to root.

        I’m sorry. I didn’t realize people were still regularly using such constrained systems. Honest. I’ve homebuilt my PCs for the last 15 years.
