BleachBit 4.0 is the new version of this "cleaner" for Linux, but also for Windows. A kind of open-source CCleaner with which to review your system to make it 'spotless'. But beware: you have to use it knowingly.
In fact, go ahead that you do not have to complicate your life to "clean" your Linux distro, but if you are a little fond of these things and do not like to leave behind the remains of anything (orphaned packages, browsing history, etc.), or you just prefer to have cleaning centralized in the same application, that's what BleachBit is dedicated to.
As for BleachBit 4.0, among its novelties stands out the support of Python 3 with which to guarantee compatibility with many of the latest versions of the most popular Linux distributions; deeper cleaning of files in web browsers like Chrome, Firefox or Opera; cleaning orphaned packages with DNF and visualization of free space with APT; or support for applications like Discord and VLC.
Another novelty of BleachBit 4.0 for Linux is the expansion of the installers by distribution, listed on the official download page and which with this version extends to Fedora and openSUSE Tumbleweed.
It doesn't have a lot of history either: check or uncheck what you're interested in or don't want to clean and the program takes care of it. So it is important to understand what you do not to mess it up ... So make sure you read the description of each option, before executing it, that is what they are for. With this minimal effort, you will have no problems.
And remember that many of the options that BleachBit offers are available in the settings of the different applications, or can be done from the terminal ... whose history is not convenient not to delete, but to keep it safe. Take advantage of the strengths of Linux.
