Some I flash LineageOS which requires an extra step to install MicroG or the Google Services. I just skip that optional step.
Some that aren’t supported by LineageOS but are able to be rooted: I just remove / disable all the Google services and apps.
Even on stock phones that can’t be rooted or bootloader unlocked, you can still disable things like Google Play Services. You may have to deal with and manually silence notifications saying Play Services are unavailable.
In the latter two cases, you’ll often need to find alternative apps (like the phone dialer, SMS messenger, etc) before you can disable the built-in Google ones.
Depends on the device.
