Is there an app that makes you cringe that you have it installed because of the privacy issues with it? Progressive Web Apps might be a great alternative for you.

Commonly referred to as a "progressive web app," a progressive web application (PWA) is a sort of application software that is provided via the internet and is created using standard web technologies like HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and WebAssembly. It is designed to function on any device, including desktop and mobile ones, that has a standards-compliant browser.

A progressive web app does not need to be packaged or distributed separately because it is a form of web application. Users can add the web application to their home screen by simply publishing it online and verifying that it complies with the minimum installation requirements. It is optional to distribute the app through digital stores like the Apple App Store or Google Play.
