[Magisk] Sass86oh:
I know for a fact that everyone who gets on this site and is involved in Android development in any way have functional brains because XDA is not exactly the kind of place where reading and discovering how to accomplish things on your own is frowned upon by its members.... So if people (who can read) would read directions they would realize that its meant to be installed with a clean setup so that you can set up your device for the last time and no longer need to worry about it from that point on. This thing works flawlessly. Besides that, PEOPLE WHO ARE SMART ENOUGH TO KNOW WHAT MAGISK IS AND WHAT IT DOES SHOULD KNOW EXACTLY WHAT COULD HAPPEN AT ANYTIME AND WHY ITS IMPORTANT TO MAKE SURE THAT IN CASE SOMETHING GOES WRONG THEN YOU"RE DATA (WHICH YOU OBVIOUSLY CARE SO MUCH ABOUT BASED ON YOUR REACTION UPON LOSING IT) SHOULD ALWAYS BE BACKED UP. MATTER FACT YOU SHOULD HAVE A BACKUP OF YOUR BACKUP AND IT SHOULD BE STORED IN MORE THAN ONE PLACE.

This module leaves everything present on the internal SDCARD so I don't know how people are losing their pictures and other things stored in that sd area because there is nothing in the script that even goes in there. If your pictures are missing from the app you used they are still in your sd card, use a file manager and find them..

Everyone who steps into this world is told repeatedly from the moment they even begin learning about custom roms and rooting the importance of keeping your stuff safe if its important to you and you don't want to lose it because when you dabble in this hobby long enough even if you consider yourself to be a skilled user, you are almost certainly going to run into an issue where you have to either wipe your phone to fix the problem or you do something by accident. I'll say it one more time, anyone who is smart enough to know how to use Magisk must also know how to read since its modules are described in written posts which contain the information that you need to know in order to understand what the modules do. And at the beginning of every one of those modules descriptions is almost always (at least in every one I've used) something that states that the person using it is "assuming all of the risks and its not the developers fault if your data is lost" and then that line is usually followed with "MAKE SURE YOU HAVE A BACKUP OF YOUR DATA IN CASE SOMETHING GOES WRONG".

If you have an account on XDA and you actually use it then lets be real here, you know everything I just went through as well as everyone else does, and that means you know how easy it is to back up your data just like anyone who uses TWRP knows and regardless of being aware of the danger you went ahead and did something that ended up costing you something that you could've easily prevented and that's YOUR FAULT. I'm not usually one to get at people like this but It drives me crazy when people go out of their way to bring these awesome pieces of software, or root methods, or tweaks that really improve the possibilities and bring killer features that so many people enjoy and regardless of the fact that these people don't get money for this and don't have any obligation to share it with us, people still have the audacity to **** all over them and their hard work with these posts by that say things like "Dont install this it erased all my data and its doesnt work like it says, blah, blah, blah" when what really happened was you flashed a magisk module that you didn't understand and that is what lead to the loss of your data, not him. So maybe you should be more careful about how you handle data you don't want to be without from this point forward and stop blaming the people who bring us these awesome tools for your stupidity because eventually the community is going to die off and no one is going to want to bother with busting their behind to make software they don't get paid for just to get bombarded and called incompetent and accused of making half ass software that is dangerous and break devices by a bunch of adults who know the risks and took the chance of believing that the directions wouldn't really need to be read and upon discovering the issue they didn't even stop and question if it was their fault, no instead they get on the forums and start laying into the person who made it.

Seriously think about how ridiculous that is.... If someone is smart enough to engineer software in anyway regardless if it includes a template and upon using that software you ignore the description or just glance over it and you end up with a problem which you wouldn't have had if you read the post, how could you possibly like assume that they're the one that did something wrong??

Why would anyone read the purpose behind this module and say "hmmm I think I should install this after all of my apps have already been set up" when he tells you that once you set the thing up it will back up all of your apps and data that install from then on so that the next time you start from scratch you can use the module to set everything up?
