Speedrun reply:
In conclusion, I want to thank you for such a cordial and friendly conversation. I've borderline forgotten how decent people on the internet can be. I can't imagine a "debate" remaining this civil on reddit. (And if I was anything less than civil, I apologize! The broader internet has trained me for a fight or flight response for replies.)
The camera isn't going to be as good as modern high-end smartphones, but it should be usable. But I have a separate camera for taking photos and don't know that much about mobile cameras, though.
You wouldn't be doing it for a phone, but for freedom (and with that comes better privacy and security). That should be your goal. But I understand that it's difficult.
Yeah, sounds like that could work.
Nice, that sounds like a big improvement over normal Android.
Thank you too, I don't always meet nice people either (even on Lemmy). Have a nice day!
Edit: I checked and the instructions for installing Waydroid don't look that complicated nowadays, but this might depend on the distro:
