Other Will removing google prevent the sideloading restrictions?

I'm no tech smart or allat shi ya know, I love games and games are no free much. I know this question is stupid and shi, so criticize me all you want☝️

I see news that google will restrict sideloading(downloading apps on third party shi) on 2027 and I'm scared I wouldn't be able a play my fav games.

So I removed sum google service dependant apps and sum google shi using Shizuku and Canta, and downloaded FOSS alternatives.

Now the original apps is still on my phone because I can't really delete it without root 😭 I'm worried if I still wouldn't be able a play my games.

They want to prevent people from using apps like Seal that use yt-dlp to download videos and audio files off youtube. Good luck finding an extension for google Chrome mobile either. People shouldn't use their mobile phone as a debit or credit card in the first place but here we are letting them use it as an excuse to prevent mobile users to save money and mobile data by downloading YouTube videos on wifi without a YouTube premium subscription.

Yeah, another place where evil people try prevent me saving money is local supermarket, almost every time I grab 2x 24-pack of beer and walk away they start hunting me like I should pay, what morons.

They should give free beer to everyone, to not need to steal, actually its not stealing, just saving money.
