I think most distros have a command to remove orphaned packages. If you just don't want to use the command line but want a more App store like experience, then there are some distros that do have a GUI based app store. I think you should try dual booting with something like Pop_!OS when you want to try it. Absolutely do not install it in place of windows the first time, because you might not like it, and dual boot gives you an option to remove it and go back to windows like nothing happened. Then ofc if you don't want to try it then don't.

Oh god no, App stores are cancer. I just want files in folders. Easily identified formats like executables or media. I'm sure theres one right for me, but it's not like it cost me anything to use the Windows LTSC.
