Another post made me wonder if there is some kind of wiki or website for android packages with descriptions that can/should be removed via adb. Back when I had a bloated phone, about 3 years back, I remember how much of a pain in the ass this was and had to go through XDA developers and reddit posts just to get the info on which to not remove. Has this process changed since?

You can use Universal Android Debloater. Most apps have a description of what it does and if it's safe to remove or not. Already debloated a few Samsung phones with it, works great :)

I've used it a few times and it's great!
