About the startup

I got fed up with cleaner apps full of dark patterns: fake urgency, Pro popups, browser data wiped without asking. So I built FREGONATOR: free, open source (MIT), 0.4 MB, no telemetry, no paid version ever. Grandpa-proof: one button, no account, no commands. It promises on the main screen what it never touches: your photos, passwords, programs, registry or browser. v7 adds ULTRA mode that also updates your apps via winget. Made in Galicia.
