God damn, you should probably try to sue for that torture!

Definitely not limited to RHEL!

Damn, I am quite sure it's in Debians build-essentials!

htop, distrobox and in some cases Flatpak!

Edit: after reading the comments I want to add curl and git, seriously, why aren't those a default?!

Still lazy! ;)

I don't think it's a SSD vs HDD situation (both should work perfectly fine with any DE) but rather a case of old and dieing HDD, that's at least what caused my system to fuck up two years ago or somethimg like that. There are systems that work better on far slower than HDD (today only "achived" by dieing HDDs) speed tho so I could imagine that improving the situation, just don't sotre important stuff on that till you got a new drive!

If you create multiple user accounts you can contain the user specific parts for those accounts if I am not wrong, certain thing will probably still be a little messy but I only tried it on the same account before and never did again, that could pribably help a little!

That's not at all what my comment claims...

Or you just wait a little before you update or keep the extensions to small changes that are easier to update!

I usually stick to two or three and don't try to findmentally change the workflow but you are right, especially for small changes like this one!

It's not, it's a rock solid, slow moving desktop that emulates a familiar experience for every Windows user and dose so awesome, my dad couldn't use KDE or Gnome and XFCE is great too but far closer to that ancient description and harder to use than Cinnamon for most normal people, it's simply perfect for people like my Dad even compared to Windows!

I get why that thing isn't implemented because it's really ugly and most of the icons there serve literally no purpose but they need a proper replacment because some apps simply need it!
