Instead of nuking a partition and starting from scratch, is there a saner way to clean the system and slim it down?
Im resorting to listing explicitly installed packages and trying to write down what catches my eye that i dont use, or i wanted to try then forgot.

At the time you first install the system do: “yay -Qqe >newinstalls.txt” which will create a list of installed packages. Then later you can do it again but to another file: “yay -Qqe >nowinstalls.txt”. Then do: “diff newinstalls.txt nowinstalls.txt” which will give you a list of the differences between the two.
