Yeah… I am so sorry but I’m just a beginner and all I see here is a bunch of jargon. I am trying the solution that @nightwatch_admin has suggested here at the moment.

Could you please point me to some sort of simple guide/video? If that’s not too big of a hassle

Yeah don’t worry, you’ll mostly be copying and pasting stuff from the Internet. Not much mental exercise, just follow instructions.

The Arch Wiki is an amazing resource, It contains tons of useful info that isn’t specific to only ArchLinux.

Yeah It’s more reliable in that way.

Still, I wish there was a something like a simple flag for the package manager so I could control if user data gets preserved.

I’m a bit surprised that that isn’t a feature.

(In Windows) If you uninstall a program using the “uninstall.exe” provided, you can tick an option to wipe all the data.

This is also available from the Control Panel’s “Uninstall programs” page. The “uninstall” button usually launches the “uninstall.exe” provided by the app’s devs.

I’ve never had this issue on Windows before

Thanks. I wish there was a more straightforward process though.

Every other OS I’ve used purges all app data after uninstalling, why is Linux different?

It’s an underdeveloped country, everything is imported so prices are much higher than what you’d expect. The government is corrupt, there is no free public healthcare or education.

You simply can not sustain a family without having one of your family members in a foreign country as the breadwinner. If you can’t go abroad, it’s grueling poverty for you, good luck caring for your sick parents or sending your kids to school. Even our nation’s leaders send their children abroad for studies/job.

Yeah, the USD equivalent doesn’t mean much if your nation actually has something to offer in exchange for your low wages, but that is definetly not the case everywhere.

That’s why “Why would anyone ever work over 60 hours?” first seemed like a sarcastic comment to me.

Everywhere isn’t europe or america guys
