How to cleanup repositories? (solved)

How can I cleanup manually added debian repositories and keyrings for softwares like brave, vscodium, zettlr, etc.

I know about /etc/apt/sources.list. but this is for official repositories right? What about manually added repos?

Look into /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ files.

/etc/apt/sources.list.d/

There is nothing inside it, just an empty directory.

What does ls /etc/apt/sources.list.d say?

You are using nano, a text editor, to open a directory in the above screenshot. Nano cannot open directories, it can only open individual files.

Yes, It's worked. ls command listed all custom repositories and sudo rm <repo-name> successfully remove it.

Thanks.

Those are the two places for apt repositories in Debian. What makes you think there are more repositories installed? They can be entered either place.

After sudo apt update, there are various repo links shown other than official ones. All I want to know is where these brave, vscodium, etc repos are stored and how it can be managed.

grep done nothing. Still repos are refreshed when performing sudo apt update.

other than grep I tried locate to find brave directories and found ls /var/lib/apt/lists/brave*. but clearing those too didn't help.

why this is so hard?
