I know your hearts in the right place about this, but android is not better than iOS for privacy.
The only way android can be made decently privacy respecting is through graphene and that requires a very small subset of the ocean of android devices and requires that you give up almost everything that makes a smartphone useful.
The solution to privacy isn’t graphene or android, it’s not using a smartphone at all.
and requires that you give up almost everything that makes a smartphone useful
that's hyperbolic, I use graphene and rarely use the profile I've got their play services shim enabled in. the only thing I have found myself entirely unable to use so far is google pay for event tickets that require it, which isn't often.
idk which features you mean, but you can get the google camera app and sideload it. highly recommend doing that
most if not all ML features like photo manipulation or whatever else are going to run on google's servers, so yeah you're not going to get that. not what I think of when I read 'everything that makes a smartphone useful'

The easy solution is to connect to China’s servers with lots of Marxist-Leninist features /s
