Instead of nuking a partition and starting from scratch, is there a saner way to clean the system and slim it down?

Im resorting to listing explicitly installed packages and trying to write down what catches my eye that i dont use, or i wanted to try then forgot.

Guess that will do! Something to log what was installed so i could backtrack instead of formatting ( since i wanted to see what wayland is like, then lets try sway! then some other versioins of wine and so on, i cannot remember what the hell i installed haha )
