I haven't had a Google account on my phone for a long time now, although I'm not really sure how effective this strategy is in terms of privacy.
In any case, the downsides of this choice are minimal. Only apps that are closely tied to a Google account—like Keep, Calendar, Play Store, etc.—don't work; everything else works fine.
With this approach, for example, I can use Android Auto without any issues, for which there are currently no alternatives 😓
