Just deleted my Instagram Account for good. I have no need for any Meta App on my Phone or any other Stasi like Institution

Someone feel free to refresh me but I think it's Samsung in the US you can only disable Facebook not delete it and it still calls home even if disabled. Probably other manufacturers as well. If you roll with android over apple 100% get a pixel. Yes fuck Google as well but they don't have any 3rd party shit collecting your data unless you install it.

You can use adb to uninstall those kinds of baked in apps. Its completely fucked up that you need to though.

It's basically remote command line control for android, from your PC.

You can backup stuff, copy stuff, install stuff...

Google "ADB Samsung debloat". You'll find a lot of tutorials. ADB is a part of android developer tools (it's free).
