I would probably use either CalyxOS, GrapheneOS or /e/OS with a set of open source apps: Aurora Store Open Camera Immich / Ente.io Obtainium Magic Earth / Organic Maps PDF Doc Scan Binary Eye K9 Mail Just to name a few. Best compatibility is Google pixel but Motorola or fairphone might also be supported. You can also installiert Kali nethunter rootless with tmux. No need to root in my opinion

Also with Fennec (rebranded Firefox) from F-Droid and uBlock Origin, ad-blocking isn't really needed at the OS level unless you insist on using apps which feed you ads. And if you have F-Droid (probably a given if you want more freedom) you can also install OsmAnd~ (note the tilde) from there for the full premium version of OsmAnd. OpenCamera is really nice on the Pixel when you want to tweak a bunch of settings, but the stock app is fine too for non-demanding snaps on the go. Just put them both under an icon somewhere.

  OsmAnd is slow and janky. Someone suggested Organic Maps here, way better.

    See my comment. Magic earth is not FOSS but considered as friendly

I had a Kali Nethunter on a Samsung S7. It is mind boggling what you can do with a fully rooted android phone.

  With tmux you can do nethunter without root

I hadn't heard of ente.io, is there a way to selfhost, ideally as a container? I've been looking for a few minutes on their website and github repo and I can't seem to figure it out (maybe I am just short on coffee today)? also, have you tried fairemail? I like it a lot better than k9 mail, mostly because it appears more paranoid. https://github.com/M66B/FairEmail https://github.com/M66B/FairEmail
