LineageOS for microG might be what you're looking for. It is a compromise to give you the minimum amount of google while keeping the functionality you want. It features "fake" play services, which allow you to use banking apps and such while not actually running google. Itcomes with privileged F-Droid as your standard source for apps. I'm using it since 2019.
Thanks, I'll check this. I'm worried about s-pen functionality and the support provided (the official ROM has 4-5 years of updates) but I'll look into it.
I've been on the same boat. Luckily someone on XDA had made the stock rom googleless and it's been working great. Im not using that gone anymore though (it was either my GSIII or my GS7).
