That's what I did for 22.04 Ubuntu :)

I did select basic install, instead of the install with games and added applications. I added the applications I needed after install.

And I have had installs of Ubuntu, Fedora Workstation and Debian with Gnome - all (vanilla) have a smaller footprint than the OS on my Android phone or iOS on my friends' phones.

More RAM :)

I have two laptops. One with a HD and one with a SSD. Once the HD spins up and loads the system, they both perform great because of the large amount of RAM.

I use Google Chrome and it's suite of software on GNU/Linux machines.
It is nice to have function across my computer...

Then you can install offline. Or pull packages online while installing, the...

I would not let others log in to your user account.

I kinda understand what you are explaining. Admittedly I am not calculating, or at least my application of math does not call for a finite measurement. Whether that is mechanical maintenance,...

I'm probably missing something, but wouldn't one simply enter 0.5 for half? 2/3 would be 0.67 and so on.

And 0.53 (given that is the actual measurement) is more precise than 1/2.

You could also create an account with Firefox. Then log in what ever version you are using with all information saved.

And not sure what you gain from Firefox Flatpak over Firefox Snap?
