De-googled phones exist, but they’re rooted or using a custom firmware. Usually, these phones spoof Google Play Services, replacing that layer with something called MicroG.

So root and flash your phone today!

Got a pixel? Check out calyxos, it's a free system upgrade that rips out anything google but allows almost everything to work, even the play store and all your usual games and bank apps.

Calyxos.org

E: nevermind. It was great while it lasted.
