    Used to be great back in the day but unfortunately it’s steadily worsened since Avast bought CCleaner in 2017. The app restricts anything but the most basic of functionality behind a subscription & is riddled with obnoxious ads/alerts trying to sell you one.

    Plus: it works very well, very quickly, and uses hashes to compare contents of files, not just names. Users can select the oldest version of a duplicated file.

    Minus: Most consumers of ICT services don't understand enough ICT to install it.

    Interesting: Its GUI uses GTK, not the native user interface.
