I don’t have Google Play services on my phone and I don’t get notifications from any app that doesn’t support unified push. So I get only calls, texts and signal.

RiMusic is great, but I think it’s YT Music client and not Spotify. You should give it a go anyway!

What to do with old phones?
I found a few old phones from my family. II cleaned them, installed LineageOS and rooted most of them. On one I installed postmarketOS, one is still stock Android and one is lets say bricked (after installing lineagesos it stay on boot logo for ever, before that I installed lineageos and nethunter on it). One one disk encryption doesnt work for some reason. Phones (all samsung galaxy): - S4 - A5 - A5 (bricked) - A5 (postmarketOS) - J3 - J4+ (no encryption) - A31 (stock) What can I do with them? Something like Monero node or Tor relay, but I'm already running that on old pc. For something that needs speed I have rpis (like a website). Camera security system? Tracking device? Is it possible to run (and autorun) cli apps and/or services that can access interent, bluetooth, gps, sensors, camera, files, etc. just like on linux? I'm a programmer and I don't like making normal android apps for a simple project.

You should keep your phone and install GrapheneOS. It’s not hard, you just have to reboot your phone and press few clicks in your browser. You can install Google Play and every Google service should work (except Android Auto and you can’t use NFC with GPay).
