Open source Android is a thing??? TIL that might be my solution to this long term since I sideload apps regularly.

Just be mindful of what ROM you're putting on your device. That ROM can still have access to everything you have on there so it should be a source you trust.

Search for your device name and "custom ROM" to see what's out there. Some are completely Google free, others retain different levels of Google play support, including downloading existing purchases.
