Am I out of luck on phone OS because i have a Z Fold 6?
Basically are there any decent de-googled phone OS that is good/decent for a folding phone?

I guess your best bet is to heavily debloat your original OS using adb or UniversalAndroidDebloaterNextGen for exemple and switch all apps from Google/Samsung/Partners to FOSS solution. Also tweak all the settings you can, ditch the PlayStore, Google account, etc...
I think that's the best you can do. Maybe in a few years you will have better option but I am not sure of that as it is a Samsung and it has become harder and harder in a few generations.
Here are some ressources. DYOR and use at your own risk :

My last three phones have been Samsung and I have used adb to remove Samsung bloatware on them, which could be a good start

I've heard running a different OS on. Samsung phone can be problematic since it triggers Samsung Knox

Damn i guess what I'll do for now is de-google the most i can with the apps/services I use and then going for a non-folding pixel for my next phone

You should de-Samsung too! But Google is a great start imo

I've had an amazing time with GrapheneOS on pixel 8 pro. I had to flash back to stock and gOS works better cause stock is so all in on ai everything 🙄
I'm going to switch back to gOS, just been putting it off lol

LineageOS seems good so far on my Pixel 9 Foldable, though I can't speak for the changes Samsung may have

I don't know what i'm talking about, but I found this:
