I bought my current phone specifically because it was supported by LineageOS. Before that I used an unsupported Samsung phone, which was such a shitty experience that I made a promise to myself that my next phone has to have custom ROMs available
I like what GrapheneOS is doing, but it’s focused on having the absolute best security rather than supporting a lot of phones. If you aren’t wanted by three letter agencies then LineageOS is good enough

I just install LineageOS. It doesn’t have any bloatware or Android modifications that the manufacturer added
That’s great if you have one of the handful of phones supported, but for the rest of us, not so much.

Apart from the pixels, which current range of phones is supported?
You can find the supported devices in the list - https://wiki.lineageos.org/devices/
And how many are current? Apart from the pixels, there’s nothing available where I live unless you buy second-hand (which has issues of its own).

GrapheneOS > LineageOS, but unfortunately the list of supported devices is even smaller.
And I can immediately say goodbye to important apps I need.
I’m so fracking tired of not being able to just use the OS 😞 want on my phone because apparently my phone isn’t mine.
What does this have to do with GrapheneOS (compared to Lineage)? Did you reply to the wrong comment?
This is from some post where authy, revolut, and a bunch of other apps no longer permit Graphene OS
