In the old days the Tech sub used to be full of interesting articles and How-to's, third party developed stuff, a million ways to tweak and personalise your phone, the world moved on I guess.
Anyway, I thought it might be interesting to share a bloatware removal tool.
I found something interesting on Gitlab
The UAD is a so called "Bash script" using ADB to debloat rooted and non-rooted android devices. Improve your privacy, the security and battery life of your device.
This seems like a very interesting tool, when I have the time I'll try and test it. I currently block apps from connecting to the Internet, use privacy browsers and ad blockers.
Edit: Here is a similar tool, suggested by Auristic:
Comment by Rahul:
Discussion:
- Are you currently using privacy apps or a debloater?
- If so, which one and what do you like /dislike about it?
- If not, what precautions do you do take, if any?
Edit: please refrain from "Great thread" comments just to up xp count, thank you..

I mostly give individual permission to each app according to its requirements! I also stop background access to other settings and storage required for app ! And I've paused all my web activity, location, search, history, maps activities,YouTube search etc in Google setting so that I don't get unnecessary pages according to my likes! And always uses ads blocker browser like brave that too in incognito mode!
