Thank you again. Both versions work OK except for the main screen which is stuck in portrait mode; apps and settings auto-rotate properly. What is the minimal system partition size for standard /e/ distribution including all apps?
I think maybe its bevause of /e/ launcher, try different launcher, i dont know about minimal system partition size, but i tried build pie, deleted almost all preinstalled apps, but it was not enough, so i skip this, but you can download apps that i deleted manually, also browser its fork of Bromite, maybe later ill post all /e/ preinstalled apps apks.
also if you interested in pie i can try buid with no preinstalled apps at all, or just with few, rest you can install manually maybe it will not fail with no space left error, but i think its not be /e/ anymore, but i dont have acess to my PC so maybe later, if you really intetested in Pie here is list of preinstalled apps and size

I checked some of the official /e/ distributions and note that almost 2GB system partition is required. Like you suggest, it would be more efficient to preinstall only essentials and download later only apps needed. That’s how microG is designed but they no longer update this Nexus.
