I have Pixel with GrapheneOS and I tried most of FOSS camera apps, but all of them are still far behind the GCam. I hope one day there will be a good replacement, but not today.
I'm using Organic / OsmAnd for most of use cases and daily navigation. But if you need to find a specific office, shop, food or ATM nearby you still need GMap from time to time...
And for the latter problem, don't use such apps except in closed environments or without internet access.
While that is a right answer, I do not want to avoid such apps because I need them. I need my mobile bank app, I need google camera, sometimes I need Google maps, etc. For me using VPN to hide my real IP from greedy apps and to hide DNS requests from the cracked public WiFi is still a good tradeoff between security, privacy and my own user experience.
But most spots don't have the resources or expertise to analyze and sell or otherwise misuse your logs.
Most spots don't have also the resources or expertise to secure their own spot. As I remember, cheap routers used in public places may contain a lot of vulnerabilities.

Will it help me if I'm using LbreTorrent do download piracy content on my phone? Or how it would help me to hide my location from mobile apps that extract location from IP?
It is an interesting question... It seems to me I compared it and I chose Island. But I cannot remember why :D
UPD. I chose Island/Insular only because it is updated more frequently:
Is it a wrapper on top of datafusion, but with an ability to define transformations in yaml? I mean it looks really cool, I'm just trying to understand the usecase
True, but diversity and competition is always better than monopoly. I won't use it but I cannot say that it changes nothing.
Heavy plus. Especially due to the fact, that the app stores notes/todos as a plain human-readable text (org-mode format), no proprietary formats or vendor-lock to the app.
For example, you can resolve a lot of blockers of scaling quantum computers based on superconductive qubits.
It supports via GMS sandbox. So, I can install google camera, maps, bank app, insta360 app, an app for my bike computer, etc. But in that case I prefer to use Proton VPN that hides my real IP from all these apps and also block some tracker endpoints.
