    The joke goes rm -fr, which stands for "remove french".
    Yours would has double "remove".

      @EveryMuffinIsNowEncrypted Don't worry. English for clmminicarion is just fine. It was not meant to be malicious.
      I just saw this video sooo many times, it was kind of a standard response.

      BÄÄM is like the German version of BOOM in comics.
      Therefore "BÄM Lee" because he knocks people out with one punch.

      Its spoken like the beginning of BAd behaviour. Maybe that's helpful. 😊

        That's very normal if you don't have any KDE apps. If you were using KDE and installed a GNOME app it'd be similar.

          side note: wiztree performs better on windows than windirstat, radically faster scans

          now I feel dirty talking about windows here..

          There was something about wiztree that kept me using windirstat. I don't think it's free software.

                          In case you don't already know about it, paccache (part of the pacman-contrib package) will let you easily remove old packages from the pacman cache

                              My little widget to get the weather, Blazing Fast Uber Duper made in Rust, has like 85 total dependencies from like 3 crates that I need...

                              My own software is a hard pass for myself...

                              That's great!

                              Another thing that is great, since we are talking about disk space: people, check your Rust repositiry, it might be huge.

                              I deleted that folder and, in my case, freed 12gb. Not too shabby.

                                Ncdu is my go-to tool. Can't live without it on the servers I administer. However from this thread I've also learned about gdu and diskonaut, that I need to check out.

                                  I believe FileLight (in OP above) is a fork of or built on top of QDirstat.

                                      I can see you're not using Flatpak, the destroyer of disk space. Nice list though!
