It seems to miss my favourite with Lineage - microG enabled, but C2DM disabled, i.e. services present, but no talking to google servers (but maps api, locations and so on still work).

Disclaimer: I've only read the linked webpage.

You're able to enable microG on CalyxOS while disabling Google device registration and Firebase Cloud Messaging (the current push messaging service which has replaced the deprecated C2DM). The microG Services Core app behaves on CalyxOS exactly as it does on LineageOS for microG.
