Well, it sounds like you mostly have issues with Google (and Google devices).
I'm pretty happy with my Fairphone 4 on LineageOS, personally. Murena also sells some degoogled out-of-the-box with /e/. I also like having root adb access on these systems (which btw, gives you access to the sqlite sms database). Screen mirroring via DP alt mode over USB-C works out-of-the-box and you can enable Android's "desktop mode", though it's rather barebones and clearly experimental. Plus, Fairphone supports their phone for a long time, they are easy to repair, they can run mainline kernels (postmarketOS...), etc. Of course, any Android phone still depends on Google for the OS.
I'm with you on a lot of complaints regarding Google, though switching to Apple would feel like trading one evil for another: I would absolutely not describe an Apple cellphone as "mine", nor "accessing your own device" sounds like something Apple provides.
