Thanks. By “manage,” I mean the tradeoffs.

What kind of tradeoffs?

tradeoffs like running google play in a sandbox... but it doesnt seem that bad. I'm not dissatisfied at all.

Precisely.

some apps are available in the aurora store or fdroid, but don't work. Hust install them from your sandboxed google play and they work fine. Google maps and ADP both wouldn't work from Aurora, but did from google play. That was the only nuisance so far for me.

I’ve heard as much. Not sure how inconvenient this will be day to day, but I’ll FAFO.

By the way, some closedsource(spyware) apps ask for Google Play ONLY on during the first setup, you can remove Google Play after. You should still avoid them. There are FOSS alternstives for Maps and everything.

Google Play Sandbox works fine from my testings. I don't use it tho. There are FOSS alternartives for most apps.
