* finding files with more than N replicas
* scanning multiple directory roots
* filtering names and paths by extended UNIX globs
* filtering by min/max file size
* proper handling of symlinks and hardlinks
* optional ignoring of files specified in .gitignore

Removing redundant data

* removing, moving or replacing selected files with soft or hard links
* removing redundant file data using native copy-on-write (reflink) support on some file systems
* bulk selection of files to remove
* prioritizing files to remove by creation, modification, last access time or nesting level

High performance

* parallel processing capability in all I/O and CPU heavy stages
* automatic tuning of parallelism and access strategy based on device type (SSD vs HDD)
* low memory footprint thanks to heavily optimized path representation
* accurate progress reporting
* uses modern GTK4 list controls that can display hundreds thousands items

## Enable snaps on Kubuntu and install fclones-gui

Snaps are applications packaged with all their dependencies to run on all popular Linux distributions from a single build. They update automatically and roll back gracefully.

Snaps are discoverable and installable from the [Snap Store](https://snapcraft.io/store), an app store with an audience of millions.

### Enable snapd

If you’re running [Kubuntu 16.04 LTS (Xenial Xerus)](https://kubuntu.org/) or later, including [Kubuntu 18.04 LTS (Bionic Beaver)](https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BionicBeaver/ReleaseNotes/Kubuntu) and [Kubuntu 18.10 (Cosmic Cuttlefish)](https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CosmicCuttlefish/ReleaseNotes/Kubuntu), you don’t need to do anything. Snap is already installed and ready to go.

Versions of Kubuntu between [14.04 LTS (Trusty Tahr)](https://kubuntu.org/news/kubuntu-14-04-lts) and [15.10 (Wily Werewolf)](https://kubuntu.org/news/kubuntu-15-10) don’t include *snap* by default, but *snap* can be installed from the command line as follows:

```
sudo apt update
sudo apt install snapd
```
