Can I install Google Services on Murena e/OS? - Lemmy.World

USA user here with an aging Galaxy S9+. I’m thinking about getting a Fairphone 6 for its repairability and long-term support but I’m apprehensive about the OS. While I’m grossed out by Google’s tracking I’m not grossed out enough to sacrifice convenience. I want my GMail and Google Maps, and I don’t want to worry about my bank apps not working. Can I turn an e/OS install into a more traditional Google-powered experience? Thanks all!
