    Let’s try the other way around: what default apps are pre installed that really don’t need or should not be?

    I get that most distros try to give a good out of the box desktop for the average user, while also saving time for who is (trying to) providing services or building machines to sell but it can get annoying booting into a fresh install, take a look at the defaults and go “nah, that’s going away, and that, that and the other”.

    I’m not advocating for LFS but sometimes I wish we could get an option to install just what is necessary to make the hardware run and a chosen desktop or window manager and from there install whatever we may need.
