Chromium OS might be a good choice for you. I ran it on my Pinebook Pro for a bit and really liked it, and it's much more open.

Thanks - I had a very brief look at Chromium OS, but couldn't spot answers to:

(1) Is there a de-googled version of Chromium OS?

(2) Is there a non-hacky way to install it to a Chromebook?

I haven't used it yet, but maybe openfyde.io is one of the de-googled versions of Chromium OS

Nobody has the time to build, test, and maintain Chromium OS. Distros barely manage to build and maintain chromium.
