My OnePlus 8 pro finally crapped out, need new phone suggestions (self.android)

Hey y'all, my OnePlus 8 pro is donezo, ling story short it got major damage that I just didn't even see happen but it was on its way out regardless. Now the reason I got a OnePlus is because when I first got them, they were the pinnacle of "moddable phones" any root or rom you could think of it was basically built to be rooted. Now though from what I hear the company has decided to go in a different direction, real shame. So now that I'm back in the market for a new phone ow as wondering if y'all had any suggestions. What's the most open source droid out there nowadays?

I went from a OP7Pro to a Pixel 7a and I'm loving it. (I was previously into the Nexus line before it was discontinued, so I suppose it was a natural switch... :))

The battery life isn't super impressive, but the camera is pretty good and quite snappy comparatively. I've found performance to be more than adequate. Not confident it'll last as long as my OP did (was still going strong at nearly 4 years old) but for the price point and feature set, it's a solid choice. No regrets here!

ETA: The size was a big selling point for me. I wanted something easier to hold in one hand.
