Samsung and Xiaomi apps on their factory defaults are mostly fine, update them once and suddenly you have ads flashing after every 2 interactions with your phone

Audacity. I stayed back at whatever old version for quite some time before finally switching to Tenacity.

What's up with audacity? I use it like twice a year so I just download it whenever I need and uninstall it. I don't really do anything except some incredibly basic things (like record audio, cut segments out, maybe some noise reduction if I'm feeling fancy)

The developers sold out, and the new parent company wanted to add opt-out telemetry IIRC. They received a lot of backlash and apparently reduced the data collected, but they had proven that they could not be trusted, and multiple forks were made before the new version with telemetry even released. Tenacity is what came of at least two of those forks.
