I have failed, it seems that I depend a little on Google, as I use Telegram and no client has good support for UnifiedPush is a little complicated with the issue of notifications…

Yes it disturbs me in how Google handles my data, but I would like to give priority to the battery, I heard that removing some permissions from Google services improves a little battery consumption, How true is this? And can I remove them all?

I also checked with the AppManager app that it has some trackers and components, does anyone know if it is possible to turn them off without completely messing it up?

For convenience I will continue using Aurora Store, I hate the automatic installation and update of apps

    you’re fine using lineageOS with microG and utilising it for cloud messaging, i.e. notifications. the actual content of the notfication doesn’t go through google (or apple), a push message just signals the telegram client there’s activity. then the telegram client wakes up, fetches the message from telegram servers, constructs the notification in-app and then displays it.

    google doesn’t have access to the contents of it, but harvests lotsa metadata that microG (as opposed to full-featured play store services) somewhat ameliorates.

    having said that, you should make every effort to ditch telegram as well, for a buncha reasons.

    you don’t. delete your google account and use it through front ends.

    in this case microg. which is not exactly a front end, but its much better than the official google push notification system.
