qdczdnyv Possibly. But do keep in mind it's not like all hope is lost. Thanks to GrapheneOS removing the possibility of the Play Store and Services having privileges and being restricted to the permission model you can at least possibly greatly reduce the data that these apps potentially collect. The access the Libraries have is only equivalent to the access the app has. So manage your permissions carefully and you can protect a very significant amount of data. Of course you can't protect all data through this but most of it you can.
This makes using the Play Store and Play Services more bearable because as long as you are careful about how you use them it can reduce a lot of the information they gain on you. It's still a uncomfortable amount of info that they gain and this route by no means magically stops their tracking but it does help a lot.
In terms of the apps having a Play Store version. I mean I kind of get it. They don't want to cause confusion by having multiple flavors of the same app and if you are getting it from the Play Store it can be assumed the average user is going to want Play Services to be used. GrapheneOS users of course are not the average users and even then some GrapheneOS users are completely fine with using Google Services entirely! Which is fine there's no issue with that.
What you could potentially do to alleviate that concern is if you are okay with less security on the installation process of some of your apps. Seeing if the App in question has the non Play Store flavor usually called the foss flavor is available somewhere. Typically F-Droid or GitHub or both. You could try getting these apps through Obtainium if possible.
Do also keep in mind though just cause the library is there doesn't mean the app is going to use it. Like for example Vanadium has Google libraries in it because removal of those wouldn't be very beneficial for either the developers or the users as the libraries in Vanadium don't really do anything unless given a reason to do something. Like for example if you activate safe browsing it might attempt to use Google Play Services.
But as long as you avoid the things that may cause that to happen the libraries won't really do anything.
A fair amount of conscious developers design their apps the same way too where the libraries are used purely for the functionality they provide.
Not all apps are like this. Most of them aren't so still be careful!
It's important to note however that I'm not trying to discourage you. No one is. Using the Play Store and apps with Closed source binaries or apps that are closed source altogether is a completely okay thing to do!
What I am saying is it's just another reason to be careful with the apps you use and how you go about using them. Which is something you should always do even with the apps you do trust!
Hope this helps!
