This might be a dumb question so apologies in advance. I'm looking into degoogled phones but haven't taken the plunge yet. If I logged in and used the aurora store to get apps I paid for in the past, will that ''regoogle" my device and allow google to track me again through signing in and using those apps?

Check out GrapheneOS. They sandbox google play services so you have a lot more control over what is sent to google. Might be a good middle ground.
