De-Bloater VS LSPatch

Some things that might help: - Battery guru / FKM (both saddly closed source, FKM is a paid app, battery guru is ad supported (but you can use adblock like AdAway) - already mentioned gms_doze module - termux (you have root already, why not use it some more? pm command will allow you to disable system apps with ease - de-bloater (https://github.com/sunilpaulmathew/De-Bloater) will allow you to remove preinstalled bloat (some Google apps, dobly atmos and whatever the developer includes) - the community, seriously. There are many people with the same device as you, some might be even willing to help. Telegram groups are the best resource for this (at least for me)

If you have wsa magisk gapps then try this https://github.com/sunilpaulmathew/De-Bloater

De-Bloater (version 25): Use the power of Magisk to de-bloat system applications systemless-ly

You also have the option to add Magisk or some other root method of your choosing - yes, despite I have my gripes with the way Google is "sanitizing & normalizing" Magisk at the expense of harassing certain individuals via trolls in the community to discourage them from making their own builds of it and sharing them I guess it's still overall positive that such stuff are becoming more accessible over the years like this.

Had the same issue and solved it with this : https://github.com/sunilpaulmathew/De-Bloater Hope it works for you.

It will. I use De-Bloater which uses Magisk to uninstall system apps.

De-bloater companion magisk module.

De-Bloater (version 19): Use the power of Magisk to de-bloat system applications systemless-ly

Once Shizuku Service is running download and install LSPatch (https://github.com/LSPosed/LSPatch/releases/download/v0.5.1/manager.apk)

Then there's the fact that starting with Android 11 it's no longer necessary to first use ADB over USB to initiate ADB over network so, anybody can start ADB on the device itself, use apps like Shizuku, LSPatch (rootless Xposed), LADB, Termux (apt install adb) etc, automate the ADB commands (via Tasker, let's say) on system boot-up and so on (to let's say, disable the shitty OEM/carrier app packages etc).

Taichi is not open-source, even if it might be ok I strongly discourage using it as much as you can. There is an open-soucre equivalent which is LSPatch

LSPatch - A non-root Xposed framework extending from LSPosed

For ADB there's https://anl.ink that provides a nice GUI on Windows. If you'll be using ADB you might also want to checkout LADB, Shizuku & LSPatch.

Download and install latest manager.apk for LSPatch.

Unfortunately, I haven't used Lspatch as I'm always rooted. Didn't find any solid guide online. You can check their github Readme https://github.com/LSPosed/LSPatch/blob/master/README.md

You also have the option to add Magisk or some other root method of your choosing - yes, despite I have my gripes with the way Google is "sanitizing & normalizing" Magisk at the expense of harassing certain individuals via trolls in the community to discourage them from making their own builds of it and sharing them I guess it's still overall positive that such stuff are becoming more accessible over the years like this.

For AdBlock, if you're on Android 9+, you can do to Wifi Settings, then Private DNS, and set dns.adguard.com as the custom DNS. For Xposed, you can look into LSPatch. I never used it before tho so I can't really help you with how it works.
