    It’s hardly intrusive, no pop ups or “hey I’m here” notifications. You can uninstall most of them in seconds without special tools.

    If that’s your definition of bloatware then this point:

    Android crapware is much more deeper, it’s not stuff your grandma can uninstall.

    Is pretty silly as Android has less apps built into the OS, and I can actually go into settings and disable them very easily. Specific phone carriers might add bullshit on top of that, but that’s not Android doing that

      Android is giving the carriers the option to do that. They don’t need to give the tools for crapware installation

        Implying that we should not give anyone any freedom just because it can be abused, Developers can make better and more privacy respecting OS than vanilla android and we should just flush all that drown the drain and instead shove everything vanilla into everyone’s ass. GREAAAT!
