Or make it so that people have a choice to add some of the extension features when installing the browser. Debloating is not fun

    Sometimes it feels like debloating is a hobby to people with little to show for it

    Well, the whole point of debloating is to end up with little in the way of stuff instead of lots of stuff ;)

    I do get that and used to do a lot of it myself, but usually the results are just fairly minor. That's what I meant by it seeming more like a hobby than something hugely beneficial

    I suspected so, but the way you worded it was just asking (neigh, demanding) to be "misunderstood" for humouristic purposes :)

    I think it's just me not being a native speaker and being lazy with my wording

    Not a criticism.

    As far as I can tell (not a native speaker myself) it was properly worded and I only acted as if I had misunderstood it for humouristic purposes.

    I've done it for actual expressions used by native speakers by simulating language ignorance and interpreting them in a literal way, for fun, just like I did here.

    Sorry if it sounded like a criticism - I meant to just take the piss in a friendly way.
