  2. Operating system for smartphones and tablet computers, based on the Android
    LineageOS + MicroG: Substitutes the PlayServices with a FOSS reimplementation. No more spying. How to do it depends on your device. Look for your model here: https://wiki.lineageos.org/devices/. Click on it, then click "Installation" and follow the guide. Don't download from the lineageos.org website, use the download from here: https://download.lineage.microg.org/ This way you get the open source variant of the PlayServices. This makes app compatibility much better.

  3. GrapheneOS is an open source privacy and security focused mobile OS with Android app compatibility.
    Pricing:
    • Open Source
    GrapheneOS: Best for privacy. But not all apps will work. Apps that don't work are not able to spy on you. You can get apps from F-Droid. You can install PlayServices, but I wouldn't recommend this.

  5. F-Droid is an interesting alternative for Android users who want to try something different and not have to use the Goole Play store all the time.
    Replace Google Play Store with F-Droid: Everything here is FOSS. Nothing will spy on you, and you don't need PlayServices (or MicroG) to run those apps. However, you will not get every app you might want to use.
