chock-a-block I'm temporarily forced to use WhatsApp for work, but the notifications aren't consistent. I'm certain that installing GPS will fix this but I don't want to do so if my OS will be permanently altered after the uninstall.
zache Google Play Services is sandboxed like any other user installed app on GrapheneOS. You can simply uninstall the app to delete all your user data associated with that app. https://discuss.grapheneos.org/d/18826-uninstalling-google-play
