I've recently got monthly updates. The last one from 2024-01-09 containing Android security patches until 12/2023.

I can recommend flashing /e/OS to de-google the Fairphone. Running smoothly on my FP3 since 2021.
You're holding it wrong ™️

KDE fortunately doesn't have to be a Windows clone. There are several guides available on how to customize the UX / workflow to something completely different. I get what you mean, though, the default UX seems to be at least inspired by Windows.
This is purely anecdotal evidence, but on my 2013 ThinkPad X220 (dual-core i5, 12GB RAM) Plasma "feels" snappier and more responsive than GNOME.
Das ist ja noch nicht mal der echte Norden 😜
Also the fps on my Nvidia graphics card is really bad in games.
Are you sure you have the official Nvidia driver installed? Most Linux distros, if not explicitly configured otherwise*, use the open source "nouveau" driver by default. Since that driver doesn't support some vital aspects - such as frequency scaling - of the hardware, the performance is bad.
*Some distros, like Pop! OS and EndeavourOS, offer a "Nvidia install", meaning that the official driver will be installed and configured upon OS installation.
Reads a bit like projection on the responder's part, don't worry.
I'd say a benefit is that one can achieve the workflow of GNOME or macOS while having the configurability of KDE at one's disposal.
+1 for EndeavourOS. Just installed it on an older notebook (ThinkPad X220) and damn, was it a breeze to set up properly.

Yeah, well, I'm not gonna give up my potentially long-living #Fairphone (due to excellent repairability) for a Pixel crafted from rare-earth minerals of dubious origin, just because you're #shilling it.
