I have installed font-packages from the repositories and would like to remove all, except the ones that Ubuntu installs by default. What are these?
OneDrive is not supported. I think there might have been a commercial product for this purpose.
4000 series Ryzen laptops are so new that dusty fans are extremely unlikely. The OP needs to upgrade the kernel as 5.4 series did not fully support the 4000 series cpus.
I would just reboot rather than run the rm's.
Reinstalling 18.04 was pointless as 20.04 is available. The browser or a browser extension might be leaking memory. Disable browser extensions or change the browser to test.
The kernel on 20.04 might not be new enough, but you could install linux-generic-hwe-20.04-edge for a newer kernel if you'd want to stay in LTS. Otherwise you could install 20.10.
Remember to purge all PPAs if you have added any.
The camera should appear in Files when the cable is attached and be mountable. Otherwise you will have to remove the SD-card from the camera and insert it into the computer's card reader.
The optimal size of swap is 1-2 GB for most use cases regardless the amount of RAM.
You probably meant 5.4, because 3.8 must be like 10 years old. Hardware enablement stack to be released early 2021 will backport kernel from 20.10 to 20.04.
In my past 20 years of using Linux, I don't remember a time when (1) a distribution upgrade failed or (2) a clean install fixed a problem in the upgrade for me. That said, I don't use PPAs or heavily...
Are those the apps that look like in 18.04? If not, then the problem is not in the snap app themes.
"snap list" will show which apps are installed as snaps.
The failure could be related to snap theming. Are the apps with the old theme snaps?
Yes, you need to. All upgrades for LTSs are security updates and bug fixes.
Purging all PPAs might help. The crap that they install might cause problems like this for release upgrades.
Have you tried disabling all Firefox extensions? One of them might have gone rogue.
New USB-C monitors can charge laptops. They also have USB-hubs to connect keyboard and mice. Presumably, the laptop should wake up from sleep from the keyboard connected to the monitor, but does this...
That you chose the LVM option means that the installer encrypted the harddrive. This means that you can't recover the files.
Gnome Disks.
You are not getting newer software for the 18.04 except as snaps, which will work, or from PPAs, which will also work as they would be designed for this purpose. Binaries downloaded from the Web will...
Gnome finally runs smoother, but I don't think there's that much difference to 18.04 otherwise.
A Linux distribution does not have a wall of separation between "pre-installed apps" and the OS. There are only packages of software that constitute the distribution. You are thinking in Windows...
