If I want to remove all contents of a line, I press 'd' twice.
But in most cases I want the line to still be there (meaning
the space, so after deleting I would have a blank line), so I
tend to find myself when deleting afterward replacing the line
(like shift + O).

So if I am making any sense, is there a way to remove all
contents of a line without removing the line itself (I guess
similarly to using x to delete a character but for a whole
line)?

In addition to the other answers suggesting "0D" and "^D", if you want to clear the line and end up in insert mode at what was previously the indent-level, you can use "S".
