I highly recommend lineageOS, or better yet lineageOS with microg.
Running a completely degoogled android phone right now, and it feels smooth as butter. Microg has gotten so good, the vast majority of playstore apps work completely fine even without Google services, including things like my banking apps.
Feels liberating as fuck, not gonna lie.
Only apps that don't work for me are ones that require IaP's. About 30% of those I can crack with LuckyPatcher. I can also crack other paid apps with license protection.
Mostly I havent needed to do any of that though, because I've found that there are so many great open source apps that do the things I need.
You're mistaken. The vast majority of Android apps do not work without Play Services installed.
I don't know what to tell you mate. Have you tried microG recently?
I'm running my banking app, social media apps, a bunch of games, mail app etc, all without play services.

Paid apps are harder to get working, but I've had some success patching them with luckypatcher.
Honestly though, the biggest surprise to me was how little I needed those proprietary apps. Usually with a bit of digging I was able to find great open source alternatives.
Same here. Running F-Droid and Aurora Store on CalyxOS. Every app like banking, authenticators and all the others work like a charm. True freedom. You can do everything with your phone what you want. Can even imagine to go back to Google restrictions and horrible bloatware.
MicroG uses Play Services. That's why you have to log into an account.
This is incorrect. You do not need to log into an account and MicroG works perfectly fine without one. MicroG doesn't use Google Play Services, it replaces it.
