That's one of the reasons I'm not buying a device with Android 10. I find it intolerable that I can't uninstall most pre-installed apps. PlayMusic, PlayBooks, News, Drive. Hangouts, Assistant, GMail etc. are all apps I don't use. Nevertheless, they are still on my smartphone and take away important space. I understand that Google/Alphabet also wants to earn money but it's really annoying. I'm using the Firefox browser but still can't uninstall Google Chrome.
The worst thing is that at least on my tablet, I get continual popups saying unfortunately Google Hangouts has stopped. No kidding Google - it's because I bloody well deleted it. Why force me to keep seeing it even if I never have and never will use it, and don't want it on my systems?
For some reason, my Android phone doesn't harass me like the tablet does. But I best end it here, lest I jinx myself.
