I use a degoogled google pixel (grapheneos) so there are definitely options out there.
There definitely are options, but I'm just not sure I'll be able to outright purchase a phone and flash a ROM like grapheneos on it. I feel as though at this point I'll probably have to end up just upgrading through my carrier and I don't know if they even allow you to root or flash phones from them without terminating service.
If you get it from carrier and it's locked, even google pixels, then you cannot flash custom rom on there.
