Free/unchained software/tools has four requirements. The freedom to:
1. share to help others.
2. understand the tool.
3. perform as we want.
4. adapt to our needs.
When tools becomes too bloated, we loose the ability to understand them, therefore we dont know whether the tool performs as we want. It also means reducing the adaptability of the tool.
Therefore, I dont concider bloated "free/unchained" tools to be truely unchained.

Instead we should primarily describe it as a subscription tool.
"Do you got a subscription tool like RSS?"
"No, what's that?"
"Its a way to subscribe to the content from websites. For example, my content on my social media can be subscribed to, so if you add the site in the tool, you will see it in the timeline."
"But do we really need it though?"
"Today, the way we subscribe..."

How does one run python scripts from phone? That is android or iphone.
Im interested in this from the perspective of promoting peoples control over tools. Therefore Im weighting accessibility, grassroot funding and humanity.
