Even I use f-droid and use mainstream ones in browser if possible. Along with ChatGPT I saw two other apps that showed same message but dont remember them.
Now the real question, how do microG works like all I have to install it as I dont know where to start the tutorials. Since i dont want to root my phone
Their official is very annoying,they use google service for DRM purpose and also if u have root it will not work either.As alternative u can try chagpt wrapper https://f-droid.org/uk/packages/org.woheller69.gptassist/
So you saying, this kind of apps wont work eventhough I am not touching Google Play Services. And yes, thanks for the suggestion
Depends from application,some apps like whatsapp or viber will tell that they wanna google play service but u can skip this pop up and keep using application but some apps like official chatgpt app will not work at all.
