Are there any recent third-party Android ROMs (without any Google services) which send little or no telemetry data?

  Yes, LineageOS.

    As soon as you install Google play services it is pretty much a moot point. Also in the past LineageOS left in a lot of Google related code and in general focused more on features than privacy. Maybe that has changed but using a purpose built ROM like GrapheneOS or CalyxOS is a lot better & actually easier.

    Calyx and Graphene are also worth checking out if you have a compatible device.

    I got my first taste of LineageOS on my Nintendo Switch of all places, it's quite a nice OS for people who want Android without Google in it. It also runs on basically anything as far as I can tell.
