From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I recently switched from endeavouros to opensuse TW after joining the linux world 4 months ago (im a linux newbie) and i like the distro so far, but there's one catch

There's no sudo apt autoremove equivalent for opensuse and i find it really hard to choose which old .config, cache and other junk files i can delete to save space.

Can someone help me?

Simple. Run sudo apt autoremove and pretend like it worked. You'll never know if it did or not. Like and subscribe

Yesterday I spent five hours cleaning out 247 MB on my $50, 1TB SSD. I am very efficient.
