It's a little more hands on, but when you reach the end of OS updates support, you can switch to a community-supported OS.
Like Linux? I don't know anything about it. I'd definitely try.
No, there are unfortunately no truly workable Linux OSs for phones yet AFAIK. But there are plenty of Android-based OSs that work really well, and are usually maintained for quite a while, depending on the popularity of your device. Look into LineageOS, or Pixel Experience, to name a few.
There's ubuntu touch. I'm not sure how many phones that works on though.
