I consider to switch to Fairphone from iPhone, what should I need to know? Is it possible to get it work without Google account? Or is it better to switch to another operating system as well?

I’m on an FP5 atm, was on stock Google for about half a year (without Google account) before switiching to CalyxOS, I have no complaints except maybe the camera which is terrible, caved in and installed Gcam, probably this one:

Be aware that I’ve never used an Iphone and I’m quite deep into the anti-evilcorp stuff, have been runnig customs roms for years and years, so I probably just don’t know many of the cool features you can in exchange for giving up your privacy, so I don’t miss them.
If you switch I’m happy to help / answer questions.
Ok. I will continue to investigate this further and make my decision later. I would like to get away from those mega corporations, so I don’t think I have any problem with those cool and fancy features I might lose. My only concern is how to install some custom rom without ending up with expensive paper weight.
