Cleanmymacx on Apple M1 pro

Dear community,

Is it safe to use cleanmymacx on Apple Macbook Pro M1 for clean system of unnecessary data ? If not, can you suggest an alternative for it, maybe ccleaner? I use MacOS Sonoma as operating system.

Sincerely yours,

Claudiu Alex

MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 14.5

CleanMyMac is indistinguishable from malware. It can not even remove itself properly.
