Opting out of ATT seems like the most obvious no-brainer, but are there options for phone service that are actually halfway decent?

Or as an alternative, would it be feasible to get some kind of internet phone/texting service, use that over wifi, or maybe have a basic data plan to go with it at most?

that won't work without telling us your region. the largest part of the world doesn't even know what is AT&T, let alone ATT

Generally speaking, if someone asks/talks about some local topic without bothering to specify where they live, you can just assume they live in the US :)

true, but I thought it would be important to know the state too

ok but don't the available providers vary by state?
