Good points. As someone else pointed out, my "no longer supporting google" statement also didn't take into account the fact that android is a google product, and google contributes to AOSP! Maybe I should just fire up my old gmail account!

Great writeup @siggy47 ! I just finished reading it all.

Except the $600 for the phone 😅

A few points that others may have made:

 - Obtainium. Prioritize getting apps from there over F-Droid
 - Use the default browser, it's hardened and they specifically recommend it (unless you need Tor)
 - AntennaPod, much better than Podverse or Fountain
