To delete them, I would first need to install them. Maybe I should do that? Or maybe not, as I don’t think they’re worth wasting my time (and my peace of mind). Beside digital ID, password manager, financial apps, my cloud (Filen.io) and a chess app, + the taxi app, I have nothing installed on my phone. Not even the email is active. I used to listen to podcast but even that I removed.
I use a few of the service listed but only on my computer, containerized in Firefox. So they and their constant tracking can go f.omething themselves ;)
If I was to really start using my smartphone, I would stop using my iPhone (which I consider less insecure privacy-wise than vanilla Android, but far from being private enough) and would buy one of the /e/ powered smartphone available. I purchased one for my spouse a few years ago and it’s still working great. Worth mentioning she is like me with her phone and don’t do much with it, but all the apps she needs (for work, finance, and stuff) are working fine.
