In my testing most of the apps don’t work without gapps so you can just install microg and Aurora in that case. But I use only FOSS apps now so idk if anything changed.
I have definitely installed a handful of APKs over the years that did not work for me because they required Play Services, but that is far from being most of the APKs I’ve tried.
Wait WhatsApp works on degoogled phones? I heard they started banning custom ROM users recently and degoogled ROMs can’t be spoofed to look exactly like stock ones so isn’t that dangerous?
Or who use de-googled device!

Well, I use WhatsApp and some other close source app. I have to go manually download APKs and install it.

I de-googled my device by removing GAPPS for user0.
Take a backup of whatsapp on working device and restore it on your degoogled device
Nah I’d better stay away from that piece of spyware but thanks for the advice
Good for you. I only use it because of School.
