MicroG Installers:
Just installing the microg components as user apps will partially function but you will not get full functionality without the main components installed as system apps, like the location components.
There are a few 3rd-party installers that handle that and set all the required permissions etc.
These are the ones generally recommended
*Note: currently all installers use the official microg version, so you can update it from its F-Droid repository.

🔴App download / install / manage
Google PlayStore™ can be installed with #minmicrog and other microg installers. Some apps you bought with a Google account may require it to check for licenses.
If it doesn't work check possible solutions here: https://t.me/NoGoolag/19314 ( #issues )
You can buy apps with your Google account from a web browser and then download it with Google playstore / Aurora Store / Yalp Store
Don't buy apps to Google, you're financing that evil corporation with the 30% cut they take from every app sold
