I'm just going to mirror a common sentiment. Get an Android phone and just use alternative apps that are open source.
I see you're using Obsidian and I believe that Obsidian is not open source. I'd recommend Logseq as an alternative. I know it does not have as many features as Obsidian and it's in beta, but it's got a really nice community behind it.
Also I always recommend SyncThing everywhere I go. Sync your files directly between your devices. I sync files between my Windows PC, my Synology NAS, my phone, & my Linux laptop. It works like a charm.
Most FOSS Camera apps and photo galleries are not linked to an online photo service for example. So just sync them to your other devices directly instead of using the cloud.
Oh huh, I wonder why I thought obsidian was open source. I might have gotten crossed when I saw "offline + (actually) free + 3rd party plugins" and assumed something like that would be open source.
It's freemium software that allows you to control your files how you want them which is honestly something that isn't really common these days
