You're blowing this entirely out of proportion. The vast vast majority of apps work without issue with sandboxed play services. Yes it's less plug and play than a stock os. No it's not a life-ending inconvenience.

- Itoldmyselfso 10mo agoMicrosoft authenticator should work on GOS, I can only find single person saying it doesn't but there's plenty of reasons it might not work for them (vpn, too strict exploit protection settings). And there's multiple people mentioning it working fine.
- palata 10mo agoMicrosoft Authenticator works on my GrapheneOS (I have the Play Services, not sure if it matters).
