Nono you don't understand. Graphene OS comes default without any version of google play services, neither the original one or the microg alternative. You can enable sandboxed google play for compatability, here it is pure preference if you prefer sandboxed google play or microg. I am not sure what I prefer yet. So the most degoogled way is actually no google api calls at all. Which I do think might be available with microg by disabling it? I forgot.
You should also realize graphene is only made for pixel devices. Because of verified vendor boot.
Why should I realise that and why does it matter?
Because op didn't mentioned he owns a pixel.
And yet he did not mention he does not own one. Am I supposed to withhold information because I'm not sure which information helps him? Am I supposed to play government?
