It’s true lol. I had to install Docker for teaching on my old drive and that instantly maxed out my root partition even when I kept deleting intermediate builds and unused data. Now I have this fun paranoia for all apps :)

just fyi I moved Discord, GIMP, Obsidian, and OBS over to flatpak and my root partition jumped from 19GB to 23GB. I’m kinda sad about it tbh

I was there on TeamSpeak over a decade ago. It was good for its time

It looks like you’re right. Uninstalling the deb and then installing the flatpak consumed an additional 2GB on my root, but I have a handful of other electron-based apps that are mildly obnoxious snaps, and migrating them might help amortize that cost

Oh that’s great! I’ll switch to the flatpak tonight then

I haven’t tried flatpacks yet. How do they compare to, say, snaps in terms of storage/redundancy?

Definitely RE for me. I couldn’t sleep after the first time I saw a crimson head. The sharks were terrifying too

You can look into Spotify Downloader spotdl, a Python package here: https://github.com/spotDL/spotify-downloader

It doesn’t download as you listen, but it’ll do something smart and download all the tracks of a playlist/album/etc by grabbing high-quality audio from Youtube videos (and it magically avoids dreaded music video versions) if you feed it a Spotify URL. It also puts all the metadata in the tracks automatically.
