A solution taken from the arch-wiki:

When doing a GNOME install, some unwanted icons might appear in the panel. To remove the icons, edit the GNOME panel script.

For example, to remove the universal access icon. Remove a11y from
the AREA_ORDER line and comment out the a11y line in
AREA_SHELL_IMPLEMENTATION

/usr/share/gnome-shell/js/ui/panel.js



const STANDARD_STATUS_AREA_ORDER = ['ally', 'keyboard', 'volume', 'network', 'bluetooth', 'battery', 'userMenu'];

const STANDARD_STATUS_AREA_SHELL_IMPLEMENTATION = {

    'a11y': imports.ui.status.accessibility.ATIndicator

    'volume': imports.ui.status.volume.Indicator,

    'battery': imports.ui.status.power.Indicator,

    'keyboard': imports.ui.status.keyboard.XKBIndicator,

    'userMenu': imports.ui.userMenu.UserMenuButton

};

to

/usr/share/gnome-shell/js/ui/panel.js



const STANDARD_STATUS_AREA_ORDER = ['keyboard', 'volume', 'network', 'bluetooth' 'battery', 'userMenu'];

const STANDARD_STATUS_AREA_SHELL_IMPLEMENTATION = {

    //'a11y': imports.ui.status.accessibility.ATIndicator

    'volume': imports.ui.status.volume.Indicator,

    'battery': imports.ui.status.power.Indicator,

    'keyboard': imports.ui.status.keyboard.XKBIndicator,

    'userMenu': imports.ui.userMenu.UserMenuButton

};

save your results and restart the shell to see results:

Alt+F2

r

Enter

I am using this right now and it works with my gnome-shell!
