"sudo apt install --fix-broken" would only fix broken dependencies, but
depending on what you removed, there is nothing broken.

Take a look at

  grep -e remove -e purge /var/log/apt/history.log | sort --reverse | grep -v autoremove | less

maybe you removed something essential.

If it's not much output you could redirect it to a file by running

  grep -e remove -e purge /var/log/apt/history.log | sort --reverse | grep -v autoremove > /tmp/output.txt

and attache the file to a reply.
