[OnePlus 5 Themes, Apps, and Mods] shadowstep:
I apologize, your original post didn't specify that you were asking in context of analytics/data mining exclusively, hence I pointed you out to that post of mine. :) Anyway, you can have a look at the Magisk modules available in this thread an extract them to see what all is being replaced by a zero byte file, and that should be helpful.

I'm sure you do. I hope you didn't infer from my post that I meant you didn't know what debloating is. If it sounded like that, I apologize again. I was merely stating the difference between the two modules, that's all. :)

I never said it is the only way to achieve what this module does. There are plenty of other options available. Coming to creating confusion amongst newbies, I doubt that's the case or else this thread would've been flooded with queries. Nonetheless, you're entitled to your opinion, and I respect that. I'm not here to prove you or anyone else right or wrong. No hard feelings. :)

My opinion here is different than yours (only when it comes to the latter part of your statement -- I'm all for educating users). Making a simple Magisk module, which install-and-forget, isn't wrong and is in fact a huge help for everyone. It also doesn't make anyone feel that there aren't other ways to do this as well, or that "the correct tool doesn't exist". Additionally, even if I do know how to debloat systemless-ly, I would prefer a install-and-forget Magisk module over that. Again, that's my personal opinion and I hope you respect that like how I respect yours. :)

I never said explicitly or implicitly that the terminal debloater has no purpose. I was merely stating the difference between the two in my reply earlier. Just because you inferred it like that (for which I apologize, maybe I wasn't clear enough) doesn't mean everyone thinks to. I personally think that the terminal debloater is a great idea, gives power to the users, if flexible and does its job without touching the system partition, and that is great! :)

I don't think there is a correct way of doing something that can be done in multiple ways. It's purely a matter of personal preference. In addition to debloating systemless-ly using terminal debloater, there is this way to do it as well. Whoever wants to use whichever method can do so, of course. Again, if you think that using the terminal debloater is the correct way to go about it -- sure, you're free to use that tool! If someone else things that they prefer this way to do that, sure, they're free to use this module too. It's not a competition between the two, it's providing the users more options -- which is a good thing! The more, the merrier. Whether you put your right foot forward first or the left one, either way, if you have go forward you will. Same analogy. :)

I know about the terminal debloater and how it works. :) And yes, I agree it's a powerful tool, absolutely. Totally agree with you here. :)

Providing a simple Magisk module that does its job is not considered to be spoon-feeding, but that's my opinion. If you think it is, then that's your opinion and I respect that, absolutely. Like I said before, I'm not here to prove you or anyone else right or wrong. No hard feelings. :)

For some reason, this sounds like you're angry at me for not pointing users out to the (in your opinion) correct way. That's unfortunate, and I beg to differ. Everyone is a different person and what might be correct as per them might not be correct as per you, and vice versa. I've told you my opinion above, and I understand it's different than yours, so I hope you're able to respect that, just like I do. :)

If you want me to be honest, your post did come across as a rude to me, and that's why I thought I should respond and let you know that you're opinion is different than mine (which doesn't make me right and you wrong, or me wrong and you right btw). I hope you're able to respect this difference of opinion and end this off-topic discussion here so that the thread stays clean, and on topic. :)

Thanks, and have a great day!
