Thanks bro
There's about a dozen more you can safely disable with ADB.
Could I get a list? And what's ADB?
Android Debug Bridge. You plug your phone into your computer and get deeper than the android UI lets you. What you would want to disable various by manufacturer and model.
ADB is a command line thing. I would have Claude or ChatGPT walk you through it and give you a proposed list based on installed apps. It's not especially hard to do, but you need to understand that is you disable something that breaks functionality, you just re-enable things to see what it was. So take your time.

If you need to ask what ADB is, just put your ego aside and get a walkthrough.
