The fewer add-ons in your web browser, the better. Only install those that are absolutely essential for you.

Bare minimum is best. I recommend uBlock.

I hope you mean uBlock Origin

Are you sure you didn't install a flatpak/snap/appimage?

Bionic has multiarch support for i386 even on amd64 systems enabled by default. I don't recommend changing this default, but if you don't need i386, you can limited the architecture support of a specific repository, that way apt won't search for i386 versions: deb [arch=amd64] http://archive.neon.k...

Any help to get LibreOffice working in my Mint 19.0 Cinnamon is more then welcome
Thanks in advance

Make sure libreoffice isn't running. Then rename ~/.config/libreoffice to anything else and start libreoffice. If it works, it's possible something got corrupted in ~/.config/libreoffice/4/user.

As of now, there isn't a ppa for bionic: https://launchpad.net/~fontforge/+archi ... /fontforge

Yes, I'm at the point of uninstalling it and reinstalling it. It's a shame there is no command to put into the Properties window to open it maximized every time like there is in Windows.

@RamBurner, it's highly likely that your window manager will allow you to specify that a certain application, in this case Firefox, opens maximized each time (flemur's suggestion).

Or, try a new profile (gm10's suggestion).
