Virtually all of the suggested places to buy btc are out of the biz in 2023.
LocalBitcoins (LBC)
2023 "LocalBitcoins will discontinue its service" according to https://localbitcoins.com
Paxful
"Peer-to-peer cryptocurrency marketplace Paxful announced on April 4 (2023) that it was suspending operations."

BitQuick.co is nothing now. It was purchased by athenabitcoin.com and now forwards there. You can't really buy bitcoin here unless you KYC and buy more than 10K $ worth, so it doesn't need to be there any longer.
Mycelium Marketplace
This requires Google Play Services integration for automatic notifications on trade updates which will be a major problem for Graphene-OS and users of de-Googled phones, and it also requires GPS location services usage instead of allowing you to enter a location to view offers from which is an opsec risk.
CashApp, PayPal and Strike.me are apps that the general public can buy btc and altcoins with, though not XMR. One could send the btc out of their account with all these apps to an electrum wallet on tails. PayPal began allowing that in 2022.
