    I stumbled upon Canta & Shizuku which when combined can enable removal of (system level) apps on Android devices. I haven't gone crazy removing stuff however I am following cautiously the lists of recommended and safe apps.

    When will it be possible to uninstall g*gle play itself?

    Easily done with ADB. Though quite a few apps won't work properly afterwards, especially notifications and embedded maps.

    Try GrapheneOS or any other similar custom ROM.
