I want to switch off but I can’t see Android being much better as it is literally developed by an advertising company. You could root and go with an open source fork but how many phones out there still let you do that outside of the lower end
Google Pixel phones are, ironically, the best supported by de-googling projects like CalyxOS, GrapheneOS and /e/os. They are quite cheap to buy too (especially second hand).
Just get the fossdroid setup. I’m talking about F-droid plus Lineage OS. You also could go with something privacy focused such as Calyx OS or Graphene but I personally don’t care for those. Lineage OS is simple and combined with F-droid you have all the apps you likely need.
If I want to root though and still want a decently high end phone aren’t I just stuck with a pixel?
You don’t want root as that breaks Android completely. It isn’t designed in a way that root is necessarily and it breaks the isolation.
What you probably want is a device supported by Lineage OS.

There are also third party device finders but use those at your own risk. Additionally you can also port a new device to Lineage OS if you are knowledgeable and motivated. Most phone manufacturers allow boot loader unlocks but a few don’t so be mindful.
