Replying to eee8f902...

For years I’ve used a small free app on macOS called AppCleaner by FreeMacSoft

It’s useful for cleaning up leftover files after you uninstall an app. It works really well, but the problem has always been that it’s propriety, and free, and we all know what that means... You are the product, somehow.

Anyhow, I just discovered this guy who’s created an open source script that does essentially the same thing. And in this video he walks us through how the script works: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0nVOB0EE5ps

Additionally, it looks like someone has used this to build an open source alternative to AppCleaner called “Pearclaner” and its available on GitHub (haven’t tried this yet but I’m about to: https://github.com/alienator88/Pearcleaner)

Thought I’d share in case there were any other AppCleaner users out there!
