Can I be more private, whilst still accomplishing my goals?

Mindlux

My goal for today is to get photos as good as Google Camera, on my Graphene'd Pixel 4. GrapheneOS's camera just wasn't cutting it for me, so I installed this: https://github.com/lukaspieper/Gcam-Services-Provider
And then Google Camera and Google Photos. I'm not logged into my Google account for Google Photos, and I used the above link in order to not install GSF.

Camera has camera and microphone perms, and photos and video is enabled via storage scopes. Photos has the photos and video permission, but music and audio are also enabled via storage scopes.

I'm also not sure whether or not to enable sensors... I just want the popup to go away.

Does anyone have any tips to be further away from Google, whilst still accomplishing Google Camera level photos, or am I OK? I wish the default Grapheme camera was better.

With sensors disabled the Google camera would work fine, the only thing that I am aware of that won't work in the camera without sesnsors is the horizon alingment.
Gcam services provider, Google camera and Google photos can all work without internet connection, so if you don't need it, you can block the access to the internet.
