Sure, they weren’t annoying and aren’t taking much space. It’s more about privacy, when you launch a firewall like pcapdroid and notice all the data these apps send in the background… that’s insane. Plus, I just gave you 3 apps but there are dozens if not hundreds of them on any third party rom. The list is never complete because it keeps changing with each update. Some can’t be disabled or uninstalled because they break the phone. Once you get in this rabbit hole, it’s maddening and you start to appreciate stock rom like iOS or pixel.
