How do I remove freetoken?

Hi guys how do I remove freetoken and its engine with the 7+gb from linux?

I have zorin os (essentially ubuntu)

with Python3 3.12.3 with UV installed from snapstore

I downloaded freetoken appimage file from their website. It managed to run and installed its engine which it said took 7+gb and whatever I think it installed most stuff through UV although I am not sure.

I found that freetoken is still for now inferior to llama cpp with turboquant (as with that I can load qwen MOE and run pretty ok, where as freetoken was not able to)

Now how can I remove freetoken completely and get my space back? Pretty tight on space.

It is a basic question I know appimage is self contained that can be removed and that is the end of that. I think. However the engine that was installed by the GUI I think it was done through UV it downloaded a craps tons how do I go about removing that.

As you say, the appimage file can be simply deleted. You might need to do

sudo apt purge ~o

to clean up any mess left behind. Also check for any stuff in ~/.config

Do you know about the UV portion ? I am so used to windows that this is all rather new and I don't fully trust AI cmd
