Jolla's Sailfish OS, GrapheneOS (I know, uses AOSP). It's going to be more touch than running stock Android or iOS, but the more users and funding these get, the more resources for development.

I think there will be a lot of chaos in the coming years. But chaos also creates opportunities. There is a lot of local talk about moving away from US Tech and for new tech, you already see this happening. E.g. our local university has forbidden the use of most US LLM services (because of privacy and data protection issues) and are doing trials with Mistral. Most likely they'll roll out Mistral university-wide. Two years ago, they would have certainly gone Gemini.

I prefer Librem 5 and Pinephone, since they don't rely on proprietary software or Google.
