If I will flash this I need to use factory mode? Also, what will I loose if I flash clear OpenWRT? I see too much bloatware on my router that takes too much space.
Anyone did something like this? Can you please tell what will i need to know? Will I be able to change IMEI?

No, always use Sysupgrade to keep Uboot, which is important if you want to go back or need to restore the router. But you should avoid keeping the settings.
Ofc you will lose GL GUI and all embedded software.

What exactly embedded software is the most valuable that I will loose?

The GUI.
In OpenWrt you will get luci
only.
All other software can be installed manually.

And that’s all? Will I still be able to use Tor or change IMEI?

restore the router.
You mean by reset button?

You might use Tor but manually then. And changing IMEI I don’t know.
In that case the OpenWrt community and OpenWrt wiki will be your friend.
^- This is how to restore the original firmware. By uploading the original one then.

Not really good perspective.
Ok. What should I remove not to have errors or have any troubles? I need to save space to install AGH…
Also… How to remove all logs keeping? Including MAC logs. Not deleting them, exactly disable creating
Install by myself?

OpenWrt plain is for advanced users, so yes, installing by yourself.

Logs are saved in RAM only. Not sure how to disable them, sorry.
I need to save space to install AGH…
Maybe exroot could help, look into the forum for the instructions. Not sure if they work on Mudi (does it have USB?) but worth a try.
