I want to uninstall the Feedback app as it drains my battery a lot, not to mention it runs in the background when Ive never opened or used the stupid app before! The question is can I uninstall it without having any side affects?

Unfortunately this is the only built in app added by Xiaomi you can't disable.
Clear the data, set the switch to never run in background and don't open the app again, should help reduce battery usage.

@kudos1uk I just tested it and you are right. But you can disable it with Titanium Backup or Greenify(I don't know how they work without root) or Brevent that should work without root: https://www.xda-developers.com/brevent-is-an-open-source-alternative-to-greenify-works-without-root/

I don't know if OTA works when the app is hibernated. Maybe, it's better to enable it before updating Android via OTA. Personally, I have the app Feedback activated. It doesn't slow down my phone...
You can't disable a system app with TB without root.
The OP only needs to follow the advice in my first post, if running in background is disabled and you don't start it all will be fine.

If cant disable Mi services and feedback, you can uninstall the app

You can uninstall s&f app by ADB tool using your laptop.. My question is that is it safe??
