OP here. I actually liked the pointers to F-Droid apps, too. I'm on LineageOS. I've used F-Droid for years but mainly for things like Adaway. Timber and notes apps look interesting, also K-9 of course.
Are you using Lineage OS on a Pixel? I don't seem to be able to find that on the LineageOS website.

It turns out many apps from the Play Store don't actually have a hard dependency on Play Services. Example: Slack works, except for notifications and (IIRC) receiving calls, which is good enough if you don't need to be reachable all the time.

Wouldn’t it be cool to have a locked down “business” VM that is separate from a “personal” VM with your Facebook, games and private stuff on it. This already exists for businesses with Samsung Knox / Android for Business. No it's not a full OS but it fits all of their need…
