microG is an open source, reverse engineered replacement for Google Play Services on Android. It still connects to Google servers, though.
GrapheneOS doesn't use it because they came up with an effective Sandboxing solution, and microG requires spoofing the signature to make applications believe that the service was signed by Google, which introduces a potential attack vector.
