Apple and Google will gladly erase the works of developers to chase profits.

I’m happy to answer questions. I would say look at Fairphone or Volla since they have the most open mainstream handsets if you’re in Europe. Though if you’re in other regions try looking at well supported used models.

Is the Furiphone good? What is good and what is bad about it?

I have been using a fairphone for about 2 years and its great. I drop my phone a lot and I've still not broke the screen, even though it deffo needs a case. I like carrying around spare batteries, even though you can't do that on the fp6 apparently. The camera sucks worse than phones that some of my friends have that were 1/3 of the price.

FuriPhone not Fairphone

https://furilabs.com/

It's a Linux phone with a Debian based OS, but with the AOSP kernel using the Halium compatibility layer.
