why is it like a mistake to only allocate 50GB for my linux partition? i thought linux was lightweight, and it is, but with desktop environments, caches, and mostly Snap/Flatpak, it's kinda too much. i have to constantly run "sudo apt clean" and use BleachBit from time to time. i even tried deleting the ~/.cache folder, but that reset all my settings.

i'm soon gonna get an external SSD for windows since i'm not using it often, and i'll try extending my linux partition to use the new free space.

turns out, snap was a MUCH more huge part of the problem. when i tried uninstalling snap to get all mozilla stuff natively, i obtained 8gb of free space. considering my linux partition only being 50gb, this is a huge improvement.

while i was making this message, i spelled mozilla with two Zs and one L. firefox got confused and reccomended me "mozzarella".

i thought firefox was made by mozilla...??
