Discovery of the new Android apps

I have to admit - I have THE SAME set of apps for past of... 5 years - since I started to switch to Android.

Please don't include games as those obviously changing.

Then I am not sure if I suppose to include "forced to change app" like I switched to other bank and I had to switch Bank app. Or I was using Google Fit and now Google Fitbit.

I use EVERYTHING Google apps and focusing on "web apps" for example - I do not use eBay app - I open Chrome and its website.

I hate digital mess - and the best example for me are Google duplicated apps like Google Tasks which I deleted because Google Calendar app has it.

Then I tried to delete Google Meet app in my Pixel 10 but Google forbids to do this even if Google Gmail app has this app build in.

Then Google forbids to delete Google Files app even if Google Drive has this app build in.

Google Contacts even if Google Phone app has it.

Google Passwords app even if Google Wallet has it.

Gemini App even if it is Google app.

Google Weather app even if it is again Google app.

I have to admit the more I give those examples the more my OCD kicks in.

Google Walled Garden is real thing especially when I learned Apple allows to delete nearly EVERY single Apple app including Safari where Google forbids to delete Chrome in Google Pixel.
