You are at the point of 2002-2004 of Desktop OS - if you want to use a mobile OSS OS, you're just have to deal with lots of inconveniences. It depends on what are you looking for and what you find tolerable. I have been annoyed with the current paradigms of modern mobile OSes where I'm constantly bombarded with notifications and things that I need to keep up with. So for me, an usable OSS can have lots of drawback that I'm willing to sacrifice - I don't need any of the notifications or apps.
If you don't care about the aesthetic, your best bet is Lineage. It is Android without Google and you can still get lots of stuff done.
Personally, I came back to a cheap WebOS phone with a cheap plan and after I installed WebOS 2, it has been really usable. LuneOS is supposed to be the continuation of WebOS, but it's just not that usable yet - I see no way to sync with my Google account (which syncs fine with the 10 year old WebOS instance via Exchange). So I would keep an eye on the LuneOS development. For such a niche and small dev team, they have been continuing making improvements. Totally impressed by that.
