How many of those 200 applications did you deliberately install? That seems excessive even for all of those use cases.

And can you elaborate on these use cases, like I’m not sure why you would want a specific VM for bash scripting.

Facebook (Meta) owns WhatsApp. I don’t use WhatsApp and it’s a hassle because it’s popular here so having the ability to send messages to WhatsApp without having a WhatsApp account or app would be useful.

The same could be said for sending emails to a Gmail account. You won’t be forced to send messages to WhatsApp but you’d have the option. WhatsApp is popular where I live so having the ability to send messages to a WhatsApp account would be useful for me as I refuse to install or use any facebook apps.

It depends what country they are in

Now I can’t unsee it!
