Have you ever deleted an app due to privacy concerns?

I've removed some apps because of the privacy setting requirements e.g. access to contacts when I don't feel its an essential part of enjoying the app's features. Curious to see the results.

I removed social media apps on my phone, and I do need to use them, I sign in using a privacy-protecting browser, like Brave.

I have deleted apps due to redundancy or lots of user notifications or better product or change in business model (going from free to subscription), never due to privacy concerns

A number of times, especially when I'm asked to tick the check box for some lengthy privacy policy.

Privacy is paramount, and if an app requests access to contacts without clear necessity for its features, it's a valid reason to reconsider its presence on your device. It'll be interesting to observe the impact of these removals and whether it enhances your overall privacy and user experience. Have you noticed any immediate changes or improvements since making these adjustments? Also, have you explored alternatives like Snaptube (https://snaptubemodapk.org/) cracked for a more tailored and secure experience?"
