I've got a 6a and I ended up rolling my own DoT server so that it would adblock, but also resolve to servers in my own country.
I also moved to GrapheneOS. The only Google stuff that broke was Google Wallet's tap payment thing. Reportedly even Android Auto is supported now.
Oh - my kid just got a Motorola G84. It was a very cheap handset for 12GB RAM and no ads so far. Very close to stock Android too.
Is it really? The hold up for me switching to Graphene has definitely been android auto compatibility. That's huge.
They recently added this functionality. https://grapheneos.social/@GrapheneOS/111665498981590978
From what their website says it now works with android auto.
Motorola seems to be a good choice for me, then.
