Yes. I have an s22 and am stuck with it just like you, I would love a google pixel.
I have gone through all the "trouble" of doing all that and it's definetely worthwhile, you can get rid of a lot of unessesary things. Definetly DON'T sign up for a samsung account, although it will try very hard to make you sign up.
F-droid isn't a pain, it's an awesomeness. Everytime you try to download a simple app like a stopwatch or something it's usually really bad and littered with spyware and ads, the developers who make these apps don't use the apps themselves. The quality of F-droid apps and other open source apps are so much better while having better privacy.
I still have not figured out why people dislike Froid. I've been using it for over a year. No issues.
