What limitations and features exist when using GlobalScope in Kotlin Coroutines?

GlobalScope in Kotlin Coroutines creates coroutines that live as long as the application and are not tied to the lifecycle of components. This means that such coroutines:

• Are not automatically canceled when an Activity or Fragment is destroyed, which can lead to memory leaks.
• Are suitable for tasks that need to run independently of the UI, such as background operations.

Because of this, it is recommended to use GlobalScope with caution and prefer coroutines tied to the lifecycle (e.g., viewModelScope or lifecycleScope) to avoid resource management issues.

Example of using GlobalScope:

GlobalScope.launch {
    // Long-running operation not related to UI
}

But it is better to use scoped coroutines for UI components.
