I would assume that people opposed to google apps and surveillance would also be unlikely to have business with door dash and co.
What a weird question. If you wanna do gigs from those slaver apps, it might be worth keeping a separate cell phone just for that.
Other than that, see what kind of work is available around your place.
How do you know what gigs are available? The whole thing with gigs is that you can make quick money, have a flexible schedule, and you don't have to wait long periods of time just to get hired, despite not making much money.
How do you see what gigs are available without those slaver apps?
All of those apps will require playstore and no FOSS-only alternative will be popular enough to make you any money. You'll either need to use a dedicated phone for those apps or you'll want to start a lawn/snow shoveling service.
How do I get into lawn shovelling?
Do these sites not have regular web based interfaces that work for the gig worker? I know as a customer for many of these, I use the web on my desktop rather than my phone. It’s easier to read and navigate.
