You shouldn’t have to install any flatpak dependency manually. Flatpak should handle it for you automatically when you install your programs. (In most cases.)

OpenSUSE use patterns. Groups of packages that can be selected during installation. If one of the included pattern packages is removed it will be “fixed” when updating. You can uninstall some patterns, but be careful as some may be more important than others, leaving you without a graphical interface or something like that. If you decide to do a reinstall, you can deselect a lot of patterns (search for “pattern” in the software selection section of the installer).
3·7 months agoIs there an equivalent or something similar to “Use host i/o cache” that VirtualBox have? Last time I tried virt-manager the install time of the vm was incredibly slow because of the terrible write speed to my hdd. Vbox fixes that issue with the host i/o cache setting.
The different heights could be related to your custom font or theme. Does it happen on defaults?
I use the binary provided by Mozilla at https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/
I even wrote an installation script that takes care of it all. (For amd64, not arm64. I’m not sure if they provide a stand-alone arm build.)
Linux Mint do not use the HWE kernel like Ubuntu. However, be on the lookout for a Linux Mint 21.2 Edge ISO. It’s not released yet, but that ISO will use a newer kernel.
Try with the invidious instances or piped instances that are the closest to you.
Sandbox your browser in a VM or something. Don’t use the same browser/VM for banking/personal stuff and everyday browsing. Most browsers will do. (Except Chrome/Edge/Opera/Yandex). Personally I prefer Firefox. LibreWolf can also be an option, but you have to opt-in to see videos with DRM etc. Tor is also an option, but the downsides are captchas and websites that block you.
If you’re even more extreme you can also use uBlock Origin in “hard mode” and the no script toggle. That will block JavaScript and prevent websites from connecting to any 3rd parties, anything from tracking servers to CDNs. That will definitely break websites, so you’ll have to know how to unbreak them, which can be quite the learning curve for some people.
Why not Chrome/Edge/Opera/Yandex you say? Chrome is owned by an advertising company. Edge tracks you plenty. Opera and Yandex comes from authoritarian states.
Those applications uninstalled just fine without any dependency issues last time I tried Mint.
If you’re unsure, make a snapshot of your current VM state (if your VM software supports it). Then just uninstall the junk you don’t need until Mint breaks. Restore snapshot, test some more, and so on. Those on real hardware should use Timeshift to create snapshots.
Tip: Run
sudo apt autoremove packagein the terminal so you can see which dependencies that are removed.
