what do you even mean "don't support encryption"? Do you mean FDE? In that case PostmarketOS supports it, and you can get any other distro to use FDE if you tinker hard enough

A32 5G costs anything from $150 to $300. Trust me, I know what it means to be on a budget - I've never owned a phone that costed over $250. However, at that price I'd much rather get something like OnePlus 6 - an old phone with amazing community support (in fact, the new OnePlus 6 I bought from China costed $150) and specs that frankly are probably going to be better than newly released "budget" phones.
Don't buy such phones. Personally though I'm never again buying a phone where I can't install GNU/Linux.
just don't use the official ROMs? this applies for every device btw, OEMs are not to be trusted
I use fish + tide
I tried zsh+p10k before fish+tide, but zsh felt annoying in subtle ways that weren't fixable with (existing) plugins, so I switched back to fish, but installed tide to mimic my previous p10k theme.
They aren't readily available here either, so I'm ordering it online. Unless you want to tell me you have less online purchase options than people in Russia.
I've read your comment history and you said you live around Balkans, fwiw back when I was in Montenegro in 2017 I ordered Zuk Z2 from Aliexpress, it stays well supported to this day, you should be able to do something similar.
