👋🏻 Fakespot shuts July 1: Amazon’s fake review detector, Fakespot, is officially going offline July 1, 2025. The Chrome extension will stop working, and the devs say it’s been a ride. If you’re ready to break up cleanly, here’s how to uninstall it (highly recommended). Pouring one out for the plug-in that saved me from hundreds of fake reviews.
💻 Clean up your new PC: A new Windows 11 computer usually comes loaded with bloatware that eats up system resources. Go to Settings > Apps > Installed apps. Scroll through the list, tap the three-dot menu next to anything you don’t want, and click Uninstall.
Free up space on Fire Stick: These little guys don’t have much storage, so they can slow down pretty fast. To improve performance, try removing apps you haven’t used in a while. Go to Settings > Applications > Manage Installed Applications > Sort by App Size, pick an app, hit Uninstall and Confirm.
I told you about this weeks ago: Now it’s hitting mainstream news sites. Google secretly installed an app on Android phones called SafetyCore. It scans all your photos, theoretically to provide Sensitive Content warnings. Hit this link on your Android and hit uninstall if you don’t want it eating up 2GB of space.
