LineageOS, one of the last great Android ROMs, is currently in use on around 1.5 million different devices.

    For the needs of “degoogled but fully functional Android OS” these days at the end of 2023, the options are LineageOS for most phones, GrapheneOS on a Pixel, and that’s it? Or are there more projects at this point?

      /e/OS and many others. Look up your model on xda-developers.com, where most ROMs are published. The most commonly supported devices are Google Pixels because AOSP is officially developed by Google for them.

      Most phones from one year back, yes. If you want something from 2023 it better be an FP5 or a Pixel

      Calyx is great. It comes with microG baked in. Also it’s got a great installer. Note that you can opt to keep the bootloader unlocked if you want to root it.

      iodeOS, calyxOS, /e/OS are all good projects. divestOS are also good, but probably not usable for most, because of the lack of google play alternative. it now works with unprivileged microg. However use of microg is still is unsupported and unrecommended according to the website.

      paranoid android seems to still be a thing. The introduction on the website is sparse, and I havent tried it. So I cannot speak for how good it is.
