To be honest I haven't had the need or the time to delve that deeply into how Timeshift works sorry.

You should be able to highlight the ones that you want to remove then click on the delete button.

From what I understand is that each backup is just the difference between the original backup and the current system.

Have a look at XNview MP

I can definitely say that it is avery good photo management program.

I am only using about 20% of it's features and it is my go to image software.

What I do is start up Firefox first to create all the first start files then close it and delete everything in the Firefox folder then copy across everything from the original pc.

Seems to work alright.

I have had several distros working on the X205TA (I even had a how to guide written up on reddit years ago).

But I was not able to get a usable system (i.e. being able to use the system without waiting on average 20-120 sec for the device to process an action).

Life has gotten to the point that the effort to do so is better directed into activities that I would enjoy.

To be brutally honest about this, your best bet is to recycle the unit.

The problems of trying to get a distro to install properly, have all the hardware working right and have a usable experience are not worth the minimal upsides.

I have an ASUS X205TA which is a similar unit and after trying for countless hours to get a usable device out of it was not going to be worth the headaches plus if I was getting paid for the time I spent on it I could have brought an off lease laptop with better specs.

I have an LTS kernel as a backup in case something doesn't work with my main kernel.

Just recently I had an issue where my main kernel had a bug where snap's can't start up, so I just restarted into the LTS kernel to use it then restarted back into my main kernel.

I use yt-dlg as a GUI for yt-dl.

I find it works pretty well.

Don't use Gparted unless you know what you are doing as it is relatively easy to screw up.

Gnome disks is a much more user friendly option and you don't have to mess around with changing permissions as what changes you make in it are owned by the logged in user.

He didn't specify what sort of M.2 SSD he has so I thought that I would throw it out there as an option.

Plus as he said it was for an older computer & was looking for the cheapest adaptor that works, I guessed that he wasn't too concerned about getting the most performance possible out of the setup.

Startech does a M.2 SSD to 2.5" SATA drive adapter.
