Would it be fine if I stop doing deadlifts?

So I just want to maintain my muscle mass

But doing deadlifts I noticed make me too tired and fatigued and I am thinking of not doing them

If I stick to these exercises would it be fine to maintain?

Squat
Bench press
Row
Pullups
Shoulder press

3-4 sets 8-10 reps

Why not still do them, but do them less ?
Once a week, or once a fortnight, or once a month.
Keep doing them, but less frequently.

What about dropping the weight slightly? I only deadlift once a week. But to answer will it be ‘fine?’ - yes but they are a good lift to do.
