Debloat is a process of deleting the pre-installed apps (aka bloatware) that comes with the device. All Amazon Firestick comes with a lot of bloatware.

Why you should use VPN
While sideloading third-party apps, it is always recommended to use VPN. Using a VPN helps you to stay anonymous and hide your online activities. Not only that, but VPN will also mask your IP address, help you bypass geo-restriction, and reduce IP throttling. These not only benefit in securing privacy but also overall web browsing experience.
