I have tried to degoogle my life. I already have a way to get my photos to my own server. But how can I take photos on my phone without google getting their fingers into them?

I switched to iOS as the lesser of two evils. Sure, for all their supposed privacy focus Apple does some sketchy stuff too, but at least my personal data is a little bit siloed this way.
I did run CyanogenMod / LineageOS for several years but the reliability I needed just wasn’t there. This may have improved since then, though.

Bit of a tangent, but +1 for FolderSync.
I was looking for things like backing up my phone contents to a PC or syncing a music/photo library to my phone and the options I found were brittle python scripts using adb.
FolderSync does exactly what I want and just works. No affiliation just happy customer/user.
