MODERATORS
It seems evident that the effort put into a comment would mirror one's investment in the topic. With these bare minimum answers I always assume the quality of the recommendation matches.
With a catch: If it's something absurdly popular, then no. Something like Google Maps, you really don't have to say why it's both surprising and unsurprising that it manages to be ad free. The whole conversation is self-evident and no more words are needed.
fyi Google Maps is very much not ad-free
Have you considered asking the question yourself and explaining in your post that you are seeking for actual recommendations instead of expecting them in a post with a one-line random question like this one? Maybe?
Most "ITT people" love to help with "ITT" matters, but also enjoy throwing quick answers in posts like this. Just a heads-up.
I mean, when asked for something like this and the quick answer was Everything, you'd wonder if the OP meant the voidtools' file search software 'Everything' or just... everything. At least provide a quick explanation of the usage, 1 sentence is usually enough.
Although I agree with your point, all I see is a will to complain in this thread. And for free. The popular thing to do, I guess.
