Android, yes. The rest? There are so many better alternatives, for anyone who respects themselves and their privacy.

GNU/Linux phones can be a better alternative than Android, too.

Are any of the options mature enough to be a daily driver yet? It's been a while but I was not successful with switching to the pinephone when I first got it. The librem5 was still having battery issues last time I checked as well.

It depends on what you need from a daily driver. I'm using Librem 5 as one. Battery life is bearable: https://forums.puri.sm/t/nine-months-librem-5-as-my-only-pho..., https://forums.puri.sm/t/a-l5-review-1-week-to-my-ready-to-s...
