Why am I such an app hoarder!

Why do I (and maybe others here) have so many apps on our phones? I feel like I have an app hoarding disease? Can someone help me? :rolleyes::p
 
Haha you and me both. I just find apps I may use, install then leave them without uninstalling.
 
You have alot of apps cause you have alot of space and never have to worry about deleting them :p
 
I use to have such a problem with downloading any app I thought I would use. I'd use them once and then never use them again. Now I consciously think about keeping as much memory clean as possible; I like the speed boost. :D

Why...................am I not surprised that you have an app hoarding disease? With over 16000 posts in about a year, I think you have other diseases to worry about. :p lol jk.

Well you do have a DX, with 7+ gigs of app space not to mention apps2sd....why not hoard apps! It's what the DX is for. You are a normal Android user. I'm not a doctor but I think you're healthy.
 
What I've done is gone through my apps in the market and uninstalled some apps that perform a similar task. I now have only one text editor and one file manager where I previously had several of each.

ummm...you are an efficient person. :p
 
We hoard apps because people with phones like the Eris can't. We are exacting their revenge on the Market for them. Sort of like in High School when girls would be so cruel to some of the guys, teasing them on purpose and laughing about it with their girlfriends, "did you see that girls, that schmuck actually thought he had a chance with me. Tee he he he hehe he he"... Then those guys would brood over their bitter rejection and secretly wish to themselves, "I hope some guy comes along that she really likes, gets in her pants, then cheats on her with all her other friends and dumps her"!!!

We're that guy!

:D
 
I get rid of apps I don't use a lot. I used to leave them but now they get tossed in the can regularly. With Go Launcher deleting apps is easy....not that it is hard anyway ;)
 
I occasionally (read rarely) go through the market and uninstall unneeded apps... but it doesn't happen often enough.
 
I once had over 300 apps. Realizing I was using maybe 15% of them more than once a week I wiped data and just started from scratch now I have less than 100, much saner.
 
I have less than a dozen apps that didn't come pre installed on my phone. I'm surprised you guys haven't kicked me off the forum. I didn't realize I was such a light weight... sheesh!
