Disabled Google photo and drive. Will my phone's photos be private?
They can all be disabled and even "uninstalled" (not really, but what matters in the end is that those apps can't run when in either state). Universal Android Debloater removes Google's bloatware and much more, such as OEM and carrier bloatware, all of which are detrimental to privacy (sources: one and two) and aren't often talked about, apart from a few quite simply useless stock AOSP apps. By the way, the apps analyzed in those papers are closed source, so to show source model is quite irrelevant.

Is degoogling as worth it if you're on stock android?
I recommend UAD (Universal Android Debloater) as a great tool for the job, as it has comprehensive package lists curated by people that do their research so you don't have to learn the hard way that uninstalling a specific package causes your phone to soft brick. It doesn't uninstall any apps, just disables them, effectively achieving the same effect as uninstalling but being easily reversible and not freeing space from your internal storage, which won't really matter for 128+ GB phones.

F-Droid, Keyboard Libraries, and Choosing a Browser
While Graphene comes with Vanadium, their own Chromium-based browser, pre-installed I chose to go with Mull as my default browser. There wasn't anything wrong with Vanadium, it's just that I've been using Firefox (and the wonderful uBlock Origin plugin) on my Linux machine for a little while now and have really grown to prefer it to Chromium-based browsers. In my research I had seen a lot of mentions of Mull and Fennec, both based on Firefox but with further hardening and privacy modifications. This detailed browser comparison chart (produced by the developer of Mull) is what ultimately led to me choosing Mull. It's definitely worth a look at the chart even if you aren't in the market for a new browser!

How can I convince my parents to choose privacy?
I don't know enough about ddg mobile or vivaldi. Currently I use Vanadium (the default Browser of GrapheneOS, but it does not feature content blocking) and this Fork/Automated build of Bromite. It has all the features of Bromite and uses the latest Chromium version, but could be unstable.
