Hi! What would be the best way to limit play serbices to only selected apps. I still need notifications to work from them, but would like to be sure that google can't access anything else

I know in GrapheneOS that the Google Play Services are sandboxed and you can install them in a specific user profile, but I’m not sure if doing that still gives you notifications across those profiles

Hopefully someone with a little more knowledge of this can help? lol

You can get notifications in other profiles. However it'll be a generic "Profile X has a notification". Tapping it will swap profles, but not exactly seamless.

If it's a work profile, you can see the full notifications in the main profile
