LineageOS 21, based on recent Android 14 builds, is set to officially come to Googe's latest mid-ranger, the Pixel 8a.

    GrapheneOS has so many advantages over Lineage, there’s no reason to use Lineage on a Pixel

      There’s a ton of advantages, but some very real disadvantages as well. No lsposed and incompatibility with certain magisk modules are probably the biggest for me personally.

        What Magisk modules do you need to use?

          None, for our holy Savior Daniel M’kay and grapheneOS have saved my soul. For even mentioning magisk I clearly deserve a public flogging, maybe even an execution. Obviously. RoOt iS iNsEcUrE

        Using a device with no vendor-provided firmware security patches doesn’t seem like a good idea to me. Also, the Pixel 8a gets 7 years of updates. That’s plenty of time, and most people get a new phone after a much shorter time.

      Graphene is Snake oil, use calyx.

        Calyx is pretty insecure by default, it removes some default AOSP security features and is very slow to push security patches. And it doesn’t include any of the GrapheneOS security features like hardened SELinux, a hardened kernel, secure app spawning, hardened Chromium browser and WebView or hardware-based integrity attestation. It also uses a very flawed Google Play services implementation (microG) which requires root and has worse app compatibility.
