 But I have read on reputable websites :  It has been a while so I cannot quote anyone.
but deleting a 'short cut' does not remove any tracking software.
... but from what I remember reading,  you can turn off the tracking but when they tried to remove the tracking software, it broke the OS.
so apparently it is intertwined pretty deep...

Hi,

I didn't mean that removing a shortcut would remove a programme. Besides, wasn't the Amazon thing just an integration with Ubuntu's Unity/Gnome search functionality that could be switched off in the settings, and removed from the software manager thingy (forget what it's called now)?

I used to like Ubuntu, but I'm not a fan of using snaps for everything. I'm currently exploring alternative distros. At the moment, I'm torn between Manjaro and Fedora.
