- Way to tell if there’s a tracker on my car?

NYPD urges citizens to buy AirTags to fight surge in car thefts
That's true for Apple's Tracker Detect app, but any thief could simply use the free and open source AirGuard app, which has more functionality than both Tracker Detect and the AirTag features built into iOS:
https://github.com/seemoo-lab/AirGuard
For example, AirGuard lets the user activate the alarm on any AirTag in range immediately without waiting any period of time. iOS and Tracker Detect only lets the user do this if it determines that the AirTag is following the user, and Tracker Detect adds another 10 minute waiting period for no good reason.
Good time to remind people that AirGuard exists.

This new gadget could help sniff out unwelcome AirTags: Find the Bluetooth devices that could be tracking you
Apple doesn't develop the Android OS, it's up to the Android developers to integrate tracking bluetooth low energy devices if they so choose. They could simply integrate the open source project AirGuard, for example.

AirTag
use something like apple's tracker detect app or airguard (github) to check for other air tags, in case theru was more than one, then follow bigbadbuff's advice.

Not natively. You need to install a specific app, for example:

Capturing Airtags beacons and messages.
The beacons should just use BLE. For Android there's an app that lets you detect beacons tracking you. You can check out the source code to see how they parse the packets https://github.com/seemoo-lab/AirGuard

Jabber.org, the original XMPP IM service has migrated to Prosody IM
Conversations [1] is the best Android XMPP client I know. IIRC they pushed the adoption of OMEMO and implemented it first, before the desktop clients could catch up.

Maybe have a look at Briar or good old Jabber (XMPP) with OTR or OMEMO, e.g. implemented in Conversations.
