LineageOS for microG

Is this as safe as installing Lineage OS, microG, and F-Droid seperately? I am thinking to finally make the jump away from Android (and preferrably all of Google) and this looks like a really really handy solution. Perhaps too handy, if you get my drift. Is this a legit project or is it just a wrapper to send all my data to Tel Aviv?

With enough time and coffee I think I could eventually manage to install Lineage OS, microG, and F-Droid individually but LineageOS for microG seems to have it all wrapped in a bow for me.

TIA!

    Is legit.

    I would recommend installing them separately however because of personal experience but on paper it shouldn’t matter.

        Nothing bricking, just some compatibility issues I had and being stuck to microg releases was not my ideal way to go.

        Installing them separately is really easy so no need to worry. Basically you install lineage then droidify and you can install microg services from there.

          You can always use F-Droid or the official APK from Github to update microg.

          Normal Lineage needs a Magisk module or flashable zip to allow microg as network location provider. That’s been pre-done with LOS4ug
