57 system apps still enabled.
110 system apps removed.

There's literally no loss of functionality in the phone or any of my apps, no errors, no missing features, after removing 2/3 of everything that was on it.
Feels kind of nice, actually. I just wish I could degoogle this thing, though...

Well done. Did you use UAD or do it manually?

[–] superkret@lemmy.ml 7 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I used UAD.

Removed everything in "recommended" and "unlisted", apps in "advanced" and "expert" I was sure I didn't need, and didn't touch "dangerous".

I did the same, my battery life is amazing - I wouldn't use a phone or tablet without doing it now
