You can rpm-ostree remove
Most stable for me was 2 OS drives 1 storage, sorry it’ll have to be Windows file system.
I’d recommend getting into your bios and disabling features that push windows as it won’t give you the choice to also take the Windows OS drive out of primary.
Install windows first on one OS drive, then Linux on the other.
rEFInd used to be the bootloader I used and stopped windows messing about with the boot.
What’s the need for Windows? Is it something you can virtualise?
Search gruvbox Linux I think I found the light version https://i.pinimg.com/originals/c8/7d/32/c87d329daeef94762661443e3e934246.png
I’m using Aurora-DX and it has such great tooling for what I wanted from Silverblue for my day-to-day work. Never had any issues, and having easy VM’s and Distroboxes has been great for different projects. As primarily python dev, it’s awesome not having to faff with dependencies.
flatpaks would be my first goto

As well as origin the EFF has some great browser plugins and tools that have held up for over a decade https://www.eff.org/pages/tools
I have a durable metal ventoy usb on my keys with portable apps basically a walking IT dept, I mean I am a solo IT/Dev and I’m pretty basic so…hmmm
Runs on an 10 year old Toshiba mini NB505 Netbook
They plus apo files for your headphones are amazing
The KDE spin of Fedora is very good,there has been rumblings about switching to KDE as the main repo DE. I’d say Gnome is more a set and forget DE, I prefer its tools like Gnome-disks is a lot better for me than KDE partition manager.
I find the tiling better on Gnome through Forge as opposed to Bismuth on KDE.
There are extensions for pretty much anything in KDE like Krunner, Arc menu has something similar to K runner. Just Perfection would handle a lot of toolbar functionality that Gnome tweaks doesn’t. Though I would say the extensions aren’t as robust as KDE’s.
Guessing you’ve tried installing silver blue and reading from that?
https://bazzite.gg/ If anyones interested scroll to the bottom and there’s a little wizard to select the right image for your needs, don’t worry too much you can always rebase :)
I’ve never looked into it hard core but at some point I will go into all the stuff Jorge and the rest have uploaded and teach myself, but currently I don’t need to I’ve not touched the OStree on any installation so far.
The only issue I can see is this is more of a team effort, and Nobara has always primarily been for GER and his Dad. The differences though are minimal, though I will always sway towards something with the image based design of Bazzite for a gaming/work setup.
This and BLuefin are such good projects, I run Bazzite on 2 pc’s deskop and consolised gaming pc and Bluefin on my workstation
Something like distrobox export for the few apps you need
Definitely still has that directory web page feel surprised there isn’t a visitor counter at the bottom
Reboot and get into your system’s boot drive selector f11 or del, usually make sure you’re booting off the right partion.
I would try and get into recovery mode (shift I think) if you can access the boot menu of mint under advanced>recovery
