Sonoma and App cleaner

I have another thread that I am due to thank for the help, so please excuse if I haven't got around to it yet.

M1 Macbook Pro.

I have just upgraded to Sonoma 14.4.1 via the auto update.

I have a piece of software named App Cleaner & Unistaller.

I have found it useful in the past on all my old macs and it's not very big.

Just having a nose around, and 'remaining files' on my mac are showing in the image.

Adobe I know,

'com.google' has always been there, on my old macs, it reloads on startup if I remove it along with 'com.Firebase'.

What are the others? Are they something that has come with Sonoma?

Thanks for any replies.

MacBook Pro 13″, 14.4

Cleaning apps are most of the times harmful for your Mac I am afraid

Firebase is the mobile app platform from google

Bounty labs is an American ict service provider

Oracle is a software provider that makes programs like virtual box, oracle database and various cloud applications

Atebis has something to do with twitter and cryptocurrency

Adobe is from programs like photoshop, adobe reader etcetera

Tv App services is from apple tv

To say, don;t use a clean app, it will do nothing good to your Mac.

I mainly use it for example, if I have an app, and then drag it to the bin to uninstall it, I then go to see if there any leftover files from it.

What is an ICT service provider?

The Twitter cryptocurrency bit, I'm on Twitter, but do you think it might be something that is mining my mac?

It's never been there before I updated to Sonoma, which was three days ago.

I run Twitter from the desktop and not the app, I did download the app two days ago but then deleted it, as it gives a rubbish look (I don't own any kind of phone or tablet.
