Finally, an open source maps app that doesn't suck
I am assuming this is talking about Android, but for Mobile Linux, Pure Maps has been awesome: https://rinigus.github.io/pure-maps/
I have been successfully using it for over four months now for both car an bike navigation.

Do you really want Linux phones
OSMAND (like any Android app) is unlikely to be ported, but we have PureMaps, which is quite solid: https://github.com/rinigus/pure-maps, and GNOME Maps has been improving lately, too.

LTT mentions Librem5 in the PinePhone video (timestamped)
Ok, this one I'll agree with for the most part. Well, not to the same extent but whatever. Gotta say though, the Sailfish and Plasma Mobile communities have been cross-pollinating tech quite a bit lately; Sailfish Connect is based on KDE Connect, while Pure Maps was ported to Kirigami (and UUI for Lomiri). Yes, many of the mobile Linux projects have historically been rather isolated from each other. However, this is an area which the Qt-based ones have been getting better at rectifying for a while now. Hopefully this continued cross-pollination continues, as the entire mobile Linux ecosystem will be all the better for it.

Alternative to google location history
I use PhoneTrack to log my position to a private Nextcloud server. It works great and you can even have different logs running at the same time, like one for every day tracking and one with more resolution for hiking.
-
"Find Device" alternative?
You can try out PhoneTrack (it is available on F-Droid too). It logs the phone's location to the Nextcloud app and is very customizable.
-
Android Find My Phone App?
You have to have this app installed on Nextcloud, and the Android app just sends data to it. More info on the pages of these repos!
-
OpenSource GPS tracker?
If you want a simple phone type tracker, there's a add-in for Nextcloud called PhoneTracker. I use it for my small business to decide which employee is closer to a service call. PhoneTracker
