Okay, thinking about uninstalling Google Play Services after finding out NewPipe may stop working. (lemmy.world)

What will happen to my phone? Will it crash as soon as I uninstall it? Can I have Android but not Play Services?

Should I use MicroG? If yes, where do I download it? I can use Brevent to uninstall Play Services, but I'm quite wary of such a choice.

I only have my Samsung A15, Graphene isn't possible. And I don't have another phone on me, I don't wanna have to swipe all of my data and remake it without the guarantee that it will all work.

    The A15 is not supported by anything as far as I can tell, so your only option would be disabling, not uninstalling play services. You will have to go to your settings apps and then press the three dots and select show system
