Is there a particular reason you can’t use apt here?
It’s always preferable to stick with repo packages unless absolutely necessary, because performing a manual install could place your system into an unsupported state or prevent apt from updating it later, which can lead to issues especially if that package is something core like bash.
My instance is currently at 19GB after running for about 3 months.
Alma and Rocky aren’t really distros intended for casual use, they’re designed mainly with servers in mind. If you want an RHEL-based experience designed for a desktop, go with Fedora.
I used CentOS for my servers during CentOS6/7, but since they moved to Stream I run my servers on Debian or Ubuntu instead.
I have -1 communities in my instance because I made a test one and deleted it early on.
Execute just adds 1, so if you want the dir world viewable, it’s 755.
