To put these 30 /e/ OS components in the corner of ‘bloat ware’ is ludicrous.
The microG Services, Simple Dialer, Simple Calendar, Simple Contacts, Simple Gallery, TotalLauncher, Open Camera, Silence, Telegram, K9 Email, F-Droid, Jquarks Browser, Seedvault preinstalled in GSI Full are great FOSS apps, but they belong to the same component categories as the /e/ applications - and nobody is talking about ‘Bloat ware’ here.
