I mean, there are great custom Roms, like GrapheOS, LineageOS etc. They give you actual privacy and freedom from Google.

The moment Graphene is available for non-Google devices, I am onboard.

Yeah, I get that. But I just bought a used Pixel device, so I didn't have to give any money to Google. If you are willing to go a little bit older, you can get them for relatively cheap. I bought my 7a for like 150€ and it's still great hardware wise.
