    That already happened with CyanogenMod, which LineageOS is forked from. It was a massive clusterfuck, and is the reason LineageOS exists today.

      Ahh CyanogenMod, that brings back good memories of installing that to get Android 2.3 on my old HTC Incredible S. Even managed to get that thing running Android 4.0, although it was quite glitchy.

      Phones used to be fun god damn it, now they’re all locked down and boring.

        They’ve certainly plateaued, that’s for sure. I still have an original Pixel XL, and a Nexus 6P. Aside from the screen size and overall battery life, not a whole lot has changed.

          The 6P was an amazing phone, my 2nd favorite behind the Pixel 2 XL. I just want my rear finger print scanner, so much better than the in screen ones.
