EbonJaeger thanks for the update. it's a pretty small package and the b-c-c tie-in is good to know. thanks.

Solarmass I thought everybody just use their photos on a PC, not pictures taken from 0.3MP web-cam

just another camera then if you see it that way but I get you--I got pictures galore. this wouldn't be the only app embedded in a critical piece of infrastructure (b-c-c). sometimes they last, sometimes it gets undone.

Ok, so currently for those who don't want it, we are stuck with Cheeeeeese. 😉

Its a pretty small application if you don't wont to use it but also cant stand seeing it either try hiding using menulibre for example.

    Just FYI the team is currently talking about splitting the library part of cheese out of the main package, so we could have budgie-control-center depend on that instead and don't force installation of the whole application. So after that has happened (I feel like it's pretty likely to be done), you could uninstall cheese itself without losing budgie-control-center and related packages.

      Thank you guys for all your attention.

      With the GNOME 43 update that is in progress, the cheese package has been split into cheese and libcheese, allowing Budgie users to sudo eopkg rm cheese after updating, without issue. 😃

        I have found cheese to be useful occasionally, but I applaud the idea of better granularity in software whenever it's relevant. The whole idea for libraries is that they can be useful in other applications.

        If not Chesse, which app do you use to take picture/video from your webcam? OBS?

          webcam video: zoom still does a good job. creates a vid file, an audio file, and a file of those two merged instead of a single mp4. hardly efficient in that regard but competent for embedding/uploading.
