I lost a bunch of keys today. It sucks and it's gonna cost me a lot of money to replace the locks. I want to to add an airtag-like device to my key ring in the future. However I don't know of any device that works in a similar fashion, either through bluetooth or GPS, that works with Graphene and doesn't require some kind of privacy invading online subscription.

Do you have any advice on privacy respecting alternatives to airtags?

I've found smaller, cheaper alternatives by TrackR and Findr, but a promising yet expensive alternative is Chipolo - supports Apple Find My, Google Find My Device, and Chipolo companion app, however the tracking data is supposedly E2EE
