    I am sorry but this list is… not-good. Includes problematic ROMs (Copperhead OS), dead projects (AOKP), and OEM closed-source ROMs (MIUI)

    To anyone out there, my personal recommendation would be: if you own a Google Pixel, go for GrapheneOS or CalyxOS, if you do not have a Pixel phone, try LineageOS and derivates (I am personally running crDroid with microG instead of gapps)

    For what its worth, I use GrapheneOS. Aside from some small issues with banking apps and a few odd quirks, I’d recommend it wholeheartedly.

      I’m currently on Lineage on a Pixel 7, I’m tempted to give Graphene a go though.

      As I had issues with one banking app on Lineage, I expect I’ll have problems with that one and possibly more if I make the change

      Yeah. Graphene is fantastic. I had forgotten how blazing fast interface and long battery life felt like before I switched.
