You can backup and restore with Neobackup which can be found in F-Droid. In my case it works for all apps except Signal which has its own backup routine. You can then pull all data from /sdcard with "adb pull /sdcard" to computer. Then do "adb push . /sdcard" to the new phone, point Neobackup to your data folder and restore everything you need. I usually only restore user apps with data, you could easily bork your installation otherwise.
Doesn't really look good:

I had the same problem. I was fed up with my Amazfit GTS 3 and pairing a Mi band 6 wasn't possible when I tried. For now it made me turn back to my trusty Pebble Time Steel (left wrist) and an oldish Mi band 3 (right wrist) which I intended to put on eBay but fortunately never did. Gadgetbridge is connected to both simultaneously. With the Pebble I can even mark tasks (in LoopHabit) as done and have as many reminders as I want. The Mi is only there for pulse tracking. I'm happy with this combination but I can of course understand that not everybody would like this as one has to charge two devices. Edit: the Mi 3 was the last device without encrypted server side pairing if I remember that correct.
Not helpful, I know, but take your upvote from a fellow Pebble user for a really interesting question 👍
After going with Xiaomi devices for some years (with Gadgetbridge) I revived my trusty Pebble Time Steel only yesterday. This thing is 8 years old and doesn't do heartrate but it still tracks my sleep more precise than any of Xiaomi's devices ever did. Maybe you can find a device in good condition on eBay? Be sure to ask sellers for daylight pictures of the screen with settings menu or a bright watchface. If the battery is dying the screen looks like nacre cause it's being lifted by the battery.
The developer of Connect said they might release it as FOSS app one day. That'll be the day I reinstall it. For now I'm using Jerboa.
Hopefully Connect app on Android (Lemmy client). Also, if it ever happens, Redreader for Lemmy.
You sound like me when I was young. I would easily explode for no reason and it felt like rage would burn me from inside. To be honest I never found a better way to deal with this other than simply getting older. At 48 I'm much more relaxed and don't get that easily upset anymore. There are of course still things that annoy me but it's by far not that intense anymore.

I have Calyxos on my 4a5g. They intend to support it until January 2025. Earlier I had Lineageos installed and was very happy with that, too, but the updates were a bit slow.

(under chapter "Wifi/cell location") put together an installation package for location services without microg. I have been using this on "normal" lineageos for a while and while it may not be perfect it's certainly better than using GPS only.
