Let's first mention that most phones can easily be unlocked for boatloader and rooted, and then supplied with any OS you fancy.
In terms of OS, there is Lineage OS and many other AOSP's with or without microG.
Then there is Calixos and Graphene geared towards to the pixel phone (which peculiarly is a google phone. Irony I guess)
I fail to see what they have done more than already exists in the marketplace, other than adding some preloaded apps and establishing a ban-less playstore. So, there is that.
For the less and not adventurous to be self sustaining, the lazy and convenience seekers, or those that love anything with freedom in it, it seems like a decent solution IF you are ready to move phones.
The loner out there is Libremphone and libremOS with analog switches and easy replacement components like fairphone.
It is one thing to degoogle. It is quite another to be aware of what data you do share with your Carrier, ISP, and other ... eh .. interested parties.
That said: it looks like a nice addition in solutions.
