[APP][WIP] Debloated ES File Explorer (No spying, weird popups, etc)



(If you don't want to wait, I see someone's uploaded v3 right here. There's also a solution on the app store called Solid Explorer. Dev is really great as well as the app, and it works with systemless root.)

Hello. If you're like me, you've been using ES for a really long time. It's a really stable solution, and since I have nothing to do, why not debloat one of the best file managers made?

First off, I removed some unnecessary permissions from "app_permissions_en.txt". Saved the new one as *.txt, and the old one as *.txt.old (* being app_permissions_en). The thing is, I don't know if some of the ones I removed are required for root functionality, so that's why I saved the original one separately. There was a "dxsomething" folder with an image for an ad, so I deleted that.

There's a .txt file name lc.txt, and it has this text in it: "d8JH9lPQkvto1uYe", anyone know what that is? Not bothering with it until I need to.

I'm going to stop here, test if basic file manager functionality works, and I'll get back to this thread.
