Post: Do I really need Samba?

Thread: Does flatpak increases ram usage?
Post: Re: Does flatpak increases ram usage?
| Yes, it seems Ubuntu is forcing the issue.
But maybe I am misreading this.

But I find I am definitely in the minority.

Thread: Favourite apps

| Nothing was as useful and user-friendly as Systemback. It did so much, so quickly, with no mess.
All the other suggestions for a replacement seem to require several packages to do what this one did.
