>sudo apt remove mate* (or sudo apt remove "anything*") is usually a bad idea.

All is well, I figured that's what that command did before executing it as well. I am still quite new to GNU/Linux so I don't have any data/information on this computer that needs keeping, so I can just install Trisquel again if need be. Only thing I'm installing is some browser add-ons and vpn each OS install.

I saw a reddit post about someone wanting to switch from MATE to Gnome and just followed that.

> I'm not sure why mate and Gnome wouldn't run side-by-side for you, but they certainly should.

This perplexes me.. perhaps I might watch a show while reinstalling Trisquel fresh, to try and install Gnome without removing MATE again.

Thanks!
