What is the best way to uninstall (completely) apps on Mac? The /g/ wiki lists CCleaner and AppCleaner as recommended software, but when I have been searching for answers I have seen advice that using programs like these to remove apps on OSX is unreliable.

How do the Macfags of /g/ uninstall applications that they did not install through the App Store?
