+Recently, I ran `yay -Ps`, and I was horrified to discover that I have a total of **1614** packages installed, including **193** explicitly installed packages. How did my slim and lean Arch install become so bloated? I thought it would be a good exercise to go through my list of explicity installed packages and figure out why each of them was installed.
