I got into making apps for android less than a year ago... I have no idea where else can I post my apps or even how to make them for other platforms... If any good person would give me pointers in either direction I would be grateful.

You can publish your apps on f-droid.

You can still develop apps for lineage, calyx and graphene without registering your personal details to Google however that would greatly reduce your userbase pool.

If your not publishing on the app store your already severely limiting your pool. The vast vast majority of users well not install anything outside of the app store.

Ad blocker apps are not allowed on Google Play Store, due to violation to the store guidelines.

That is true and most of users most likely wouldn't care about Google overreach
