Is it possible to keep microG and signature spoofing specifically in the work profile? (lemmy.world)

Hi everyone,

I've been looking at the Fairphone 4, which has brought me to e/OS since I'm in the US.

I was wondering if it was possible to uninstall microG from the main system and just have it installed in the work profile alongside signature spoofing (since I need a couple of apps for banking/chatting).

Would doing this make e/OS unstable? Would I get updates still? I haven't found any official guides to do this yet (quite grateful that e/OS comes with signature spoofing enabled since the combination of Magisk, Zygisk and LSPosed is too much for my brain sometimes).

Thanks!

Why would you want to uninstall microG?

As a current user of /e/OS on the fp4 I find it to be one of the main draws of the system.

I'd like to keep microG in a profile and not have it in my main profile

Ok -now I have the system in my local language, so the settings names doesn't necessarily match the english ones.

I have found a pane which translates to "system profiles", however I can't find a setting in there relating to microG.

In the microG page in the settings I also cannot seem to find something related profiles.

This of course doesn't mean what you are asking is not possible.

It might be that microG settings can differ between users
