You are going to fuck this up. Don’t come crawling back to me when you lose all your data since the dawn of time and you completely brick this goddamn computer. This is your one and only warning.

      Same here, but I can understand why someone might want to. For many people, even those that are comfortable on the command line, a GUI is a more comfortable experience. And, I have (rarely) needed to do some filesystem management as not my primary user account.

      I installed something that I got very disappointed, and wanted to get rid of it

      the script itself tried to rm something in a directory but failed, sudo dolphin didn’t work, so I found out how to delete stuff from… I think /bin or /usr/local/bin ?

      That needed me to run as admin/root so I did it. I deleted 1 file, the leftover artifact of the thing I didn’t want installed. I then stopped using dolphin as admin so that I wouldn’t break everything forever.

          I’m getting used to it; I customised it to my liking and it even has a terminal built in. what do you recommend instead?

          also, what do you recommend that works like VSCode for writing shit into that I never save and leave open forever, and has a search functionality on all open files that can work on any programming language I want (through compiler/interpreter and colour scheme plugins)?
