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.

The bacground app is Amberol btw
Hmm, that doesn't show a lot of details but it seems correct. Gnome should have an Extension manager. It should show up if you type some first letters of the word "Extensions" into the app overview. Maybe look if shows up there and got activated.
But thanks, I found GS conncect in the Extension manager... Why the hell is it even there? Anyhow, it works. But the fact I cant uninstall KDE Connect now drives me crazy... Time for fresh system install I guess... Again
Just in case you haven't started reinstalling yet, dnf has a transaction history. I can't look a link up right now, but the command goes something like "dnf history undo ", where the number is the transaction id of the transaction that installed KDE connect. You can find the transaction id in "dnf history"
I've already reinstalled and set up everything :)
I did check the history btw, it was not there at all. And there were only 16 lines as well so it's not like I've overlooked it.
Okay, that's weird. It shouldn't try to remove sudo. That's just silly. But I haven't used Fedora, I have no idea what's going on here.
I cant even uninstall KDE-connect now. Even via terminal it doesn't work.
