Too radical a solution for me, I used microG for a long time, but the notification problems made me go back to Google services. i've banned them from accessing camera/microphone/geolocation via App Ops (put them on ignore mode), so I'm pretty calm. but notifications are still a problem).
They are priv apps, I believe it's the same as root
Most of the privacy apps don't require you to have gapps and their notifications
No, they don't have the same privileges as root permissions. this is easily demonstrated by the camera app built into LineageOS when you enable ignore mode for camera in App Ops and it crashes. and google services also start making very untypical requests for access to stuff.
Yes, but there aren't many apps that respect privacy on my phone compared to the usual ones).
Ok, I didn't know, it's just usually I see some notifications like "priv app is the same as root, be careful". Thank you
About the apps, I recommend switching, it's not as scary as I sounds, most of the apps have an alternative or sth like that
