You can stop unnecessary update on windows by using LTSC, on Android you can delete system app with adb or root
Unfortunately I'd rather have not learned anything related to what you posted. Android is hostile to GPL licensed software and Microsoft Windows surely is too, and they may use copyrighted or patented technology in their construction, so if I learn about them and then create software their creators may be able to build a case against me that I'm harming them, and I don't want that to be easy.
That's the another story, the point is we can stop unnecessary update on windows and uninstall system app on Android
Thank god adb is an option, though doing that, or rooting your phone, is something that requires some fiddling with hidden settings, or wading thru a seemingly endless stream of AI copy-pasted "tutorials". XDA has most answers, but not all of them, unfortunately.
Unfortunately not all phones can be rooted.
Drives me nuts. It's MY hardware, dammit.
Especially some Chinese owned companies (Oppo, vivo even Xiaomi) they have their bootloader locked tighter than my ex, but if custom ROM and rooting is your priority Samsung Google or Sony is probably your best bet
Samsung is a no-go, it's always a fight with them (I know, I still have my old S4's). You can root them, but it's a pain, they have stuff like Knox that always wants to run, yadda yadda.
Pixel is the way to go. Also the Essential Ph1, which, whole being from 2017, can run Lineage Android 13 and is still blazing fast.
Wish I could give you a second upvote for "tighter than my ex", haha!
Group policy too, or tattooing the registry with the same changes that gpedit makes.
