You can just ask people out.

I know I can, but you think I dare do that?

We have no clue where you are so we can't give any good advice. For all we know you live in Elbonia and driving without a license gets you the guillotine.

Lineage OS 21 apps on other devices? (feddit.nl)
 

I just got a new phone (Sony Xperia 1 VI) and I'd like to replace the standard google apps with some open source alternatives. I already tried a bunch in the past, but not all of them feel quite right compared to the google apps. Lineage OS 21 has a few apps I'd like to try, especially the dialer and keyboard app. Do any of you know where I can get download them to install on any android phone?

Thanks!
