I was secretly hoping they'd stop supporting the Pixel 4a so I would have a reason to get a new phone, but no, still there in the list of supported devices. So I guess I'll just keep using that thing another year... Anyway: big thanks to the Lineage maintainers, keeping so many phones from landfill!

That actually sounds awesome! Refurbishing old laptops with Android would be a nice choice alongside with Desktop Linux.

I love LineageOS. I have been using Lineage and previously Cyanogen for many years. This is how Android is meant to be.

I wish Lineage did a better job at explaining which new devices are supported. Lineage clearly supports a lot of devices and device types, but most are ancient or specific models with a known hack to unlock the bootloader. A short list of recommended devices in each category (phone, TV, tablet), that can be bought new today, would go a long way.

It's time to bring back Privacy Guard. GrapheneOS is up and coming. Lineage needs to take empowering users with security controls seriously.

When I had kids I noticed that the camera quality was quite bad (e.g. on Samsung Galaxy S5 or S7), so I basically switched back to stock.

Is this still the case? My guess is that Lineage doesn't get the drivers necessary for better quality maybe.

Not all of the builds seem live. Pixel 9 Pro has 24.0, but Pixel 9 has 23.2, for example.

Does the BMW smart key system work on Lineage OS?

Why are you guys skipping Mi 8 SE? while still supporting older versions than that :thinking_face: Just trying to understand the reasoning for it.

I am happy with my Poco F3 with lineageos. Also converted my moms phone, and works better for sure than that chinese crap bloat

Cool; See if this is the time I try using a cuttlefish target + webrtc remoting to drive all those cute privacy intruding apps.

the only thing keeping me from jumping from GrapheneOS is contact and storage scopes. :(

Absolutely love this project for keeping my OnePlus 6T alive.

Such sad state of affairs for Android. They dropped the ball on making any working edge deep learning inference framework. iOS is way better at this of all things. For being an OSS platform the amount of rigidity in not letting users customize to the fullest without rooting is just tragic.

The alibi open source version of android that only runs on hardware in the +1000 USD range.

A bargain for a test device or a daily driver for the not so wealthy.

You want to change something? Want to be recognized for making anything better?

Port it on sub $200 devices.

That's where the masses are.

That's where you start the degoogle revolution. Where you can build a sustainable business.
