After going with Xiaomi devices for some years (with Gadgetbridge) I revived my trusty Pebble Time Steel only yesterday. This thing is 8 years old and doesn't do heartrate but it still tracks my sleep more precise than any of Xiaomi's devices ever did. Maybe you can find a device in good condition on eBay? Be sure to ask sellers for daylight pictures of the screen with settings menu or a bright watchface. If the battery is dying the screen looks like nacre cause it's being lifted by the battery.

Exactly. The developer might open the source according to some reports in the past.
The developer of Connect said they might release it as FOSS app one day. That'll be the day I reinstall it. For now I'm using Jerboa.
Hopefully Connect app on Android (Lemmy client). Also, if it ever happens, Redreader for Lemmy.
Doesn't really look good:
