&& flatpak update
You can also include && flatpak uninstall --unused in your alias to clean up more space.

Appending (intext:“modlog” & “instances” & “docs” & “code” & “join lemmy”) to your search query will search most instances. Works with Google, Startpage, SearXNG afaik.
celluloid, pix, hexchat, hypnotix, rhythmbox, LibreOffice
Those applications uninstalled just fine without any dependency issues last time I tried Mint.
If you're unsure, make a snapshot of your current VM state (if your VM software supports it). Then just uninstall the junk you don't need until Mint breaks. Restore snapshot, test some more, and so on. Those on real hardware should use Timeshift to create snapshots.
Tip: Run sudo apt autoremove package in the terminal so you can see which dependencies that are removed.
Just Firefox/Librewolf with uBlock Origin is enough. The more extensions you add, the larger the attack surface and chance of site breakage. A common mistake many do is to add multiple blockers on top of uBO which will decrease uBO's ability to defuse various anti-adblocks. This also includes addons like Privacy Badger, Ghostery, DuckDuckGo Privacy Essentials, etc. uBO have good enough privacy protection enabled by default. If you want more, enable some other privacy filter lists. And if you know what you're doing, enable hard mode by blocking all 3rd party requests and JavaScript.
If you want to feel more secure when adding more extensions to your browser, then only use Firefox addons that are recommended by Mozilla. Those extensions have gone through a review process to make sure they don't contain anything malicious.
If you're like me and don't care about recommendations and being able to comment, then use Freetube with sponsorblock enabled.
If you want to remove parameters from urls you can use the removeparam filter in uBlock Origin. Documentation: https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock/wiki/Static-filter-syntax#removeparam
For example: /?igshid=$removeparam=igshid,domain=instagram.com
For the best performance it's recommended to make sure the parameter is included in the filter as seen above with /?igshid, and with the domain it originated from.
Filters for the examples in OPs post:
/?igshid=$removeparam=igshid,domain=instagram.com
?is_from_webapp$removeparam=is_from_webapp,domain=tiktok.com
&t=$removeparam=/^amp;/,domain=x.com
There's also a filter that removes a lot of known params: https://github.com/DandelionSprout/adfilt/blob/master/LegitimateURLShortener.txt
Make sure
jnn-pa.googleapis.comisn't blocked anywhere in your network. It may perhaps be blocked in a filter list you have activated in uBO, DNS, VPN, Firewall, anti-virus, Firefox enhanced tracking protection, etc.
