An ungoogled android variant has to be a lot lesser of an evil, no?
Problem is that if you have a critical application (like banking) that relies on Google services you're SOL.
It's Apple or Google at that point.
Just use the websites instead of the apps.
But then you can’t tap to pay with your phone.
Well then I guess you will have to sell your soul to the devil for those extra seconds of convenience

GrapheneOS can sandbox apps to use the Google services only with permitted apps.
Note I don't actually have a GrapheneOS capable phone at the moment, but I've been getting familiar with it in hopes of switching soon, so I'm just relaying what I've read.
You guys are really making me consider GrapheneOS.
Its what made me buy a pixel phone.
