Same! I’m lowkey tempted to get a fancy one now, but deep down I know it just isn’t worth it.

Damn even though you explained the abbreviation I still read it as Wife Approval Factor for a second and was very confused
I will once again shill for Proxigram (not my project), the only? remaining FOSS instagram frontend. You can try it out on one of the public instances.
I’m not entirely sure if it supports opening Instagram links though.
I believe WhatsApp needs the mobile app to connect to WhatsApp’s servers at least once every two weeks.
I think your best bet would be getting the cheapest phone you can find that will run a recent WhatsApp version, and then just leaving that at home connected to the internet. You could then use any WhatsApp web client (the website, some app, a matrix bridge, …) to actually use WhatsApp on the go.
While it’s not at the same level as Graphene OS, Samsung is pretty well supported by Lineage OS. AFAIK at least in Europe Samsung phones have an unlockable bootloader, but YMMV.
I don’t know how well this fits your usecase, but Proxigram is a selfhostable website with which you can access Instagram anonymously. I don’t think it supports following accounts in any way though.

I did also try making an android app for it, but that app is barely even able to display posts, and as I realized that I just don’t use Instagram, I didn’t really bother continuing it.
If anyone here is in the mood to make that app happen, feel free to use my humble beginnings as a starting point.
For a while I tried tagging my memes (Samsung Gallery lets you make tags and assign as many to any image as you want), but that lasted about two days.
Your link doesn’t work, but I still found what you mean. I think at that point I’d probably look into the Microsoft Wireless Display Adapter or something similar instead, as Miracast on Linux actually works quite well with GNOME Network Displays. But my current goal is not having to connect any additional hardware to the projector, so I will be looking into pyatv for now.
I can’t find any “funtax” user in the linked openairplay repo, but it appears that I have completely missed pyatv’s ability to stream video. As long as it can stream video I think I can make it do screen mirroring too. Thank you very much, I will be looking into pyatv now!
I can highly recommend rdx for browsing reddit without an account
Miracast is pretty good, but I don’t think it supports DRM-content. Also it seems to be getting phased out in favor of chromecast.
Infinity has it in settings, but I haven’t tried it yet
I believe Blurays are still a very good medium for long term data storage, like a cold offsite backup.
