Pixel "a" Phones are basically the continuation of the (formerly midrange) Nexus. Though Fairphone is entering the US market, they look like they'd be a solid choice.

I would buy a fairphone in a heartbeat if it had a headphone jack.

I know lots of people find they can get away without it but i use mine literally every day and i much prefer it over navigating menus to use Bluetooth.

There are the USB-C to headphone jack dongles. Not a great solution, but they exist.

Yeah, I definitely mourn the headphone jack too... I've learned to "live without it" on a lot of stuff, but it was such a nice port, I wish Apple hadn't killed it.
