    That uninstalling python2 bit reminds me of stories of users deleting their system32 folder to free up disk space.

        Since Gnome depended on it, they would have had to intentionally push past warnings to force the uninstall, assuming they’re using a distro with a dependency mapping package manager… So, no, that’s not a perfectly reasonable thing to do

          Which the package manager would have warned them about.

          Meaning they deleted it manually instead of using the package manager OR just ignored all warnings and forced the uninstall.

          These were too intelligent but too dumb for their own good user errors lmao.
