Got a android recently and wanted to replace the default os with a new one, I’ve seen mentions of others (lineage OS, Graphite OS) but wanted to know what are some good ones and why.

      Good idea. I think GrapheneOS won’t work with that as they’re focused on the Google Pixel devices. But you could have a look at the LineageOS compatibility list. Just the manufacturer is a bit unspecific. But you can look up the exact model in that list.

      I can’t really comment on all of the other Android variants. There are so much of them and I’m not up to date anymore.

        Just use Lineage if you can. It’s the biggest one with the broadest support.

      IF It’s a Motorola, there is a big chance Lineage os will support it

        It looks like it does, or at least used to

        though I made the mistake of asking some advice on Reddit and just got insulted.
