@schwa@mastodon.social @nikitonsky@mastodon.online Part of the reason I'm so skeptical that such a hook exists is that OS X has the .pkg format for installing things that need something more complex than drag and drop. This includes installing a complete manifest of all files that are installed. There is no Apple-supported corresponding uninstall mechanism.

@david_chisnall@infosec.exchange @nikitonsky@mastodon.online I highly recommend Hazel as a good tool to clean up this junk as it happens (i.e. when you drag an app to the trash).
