1. Get LOS and don't flash GAPPS.
2. Install F-droid.
3. Install Yalp (to download and use google store apps).
4. Install Signal and tell your wire-pajeet friend about it too.
5. Install WhatsApp.
6. Install Telegram.
7. Afaik imessage is the SMS equivalent service from iOS so no need for replacements here since you have Signal.
8. No need for messenger, that friend almost certainly uses WhatsApp.
9. Get a ProtonMail account for school (the free one is enough for your need).
Sadly it's the only way I can think of being somewhat proprietary-free while using proprietary services.
Sucks to be you in this particular case, take care.

I literally have no idea what most of those are/do. I guess I'm getting old plus my friends aren't idiots and just text and call like normal.

I just ditched everyone who used WhatsApp when it was bought by Facebook. Still using Telegram for everything, have a Skype client on the phone for international calls and use SMS/Email for the rest.
