I am currently using Graphene, but that's on a ticking clock until support runs out since so few devices support it, and the ones that do aren't exactly cheap. TBH I'm sick of the whole smartphone concept, I hate that you're supposed to do security-critical things on an expensive device with maybe 5 years of security support (much less if you're buying used/refurbished, or cheaper models) that has a pretty high risk of breaking, getting lost or being stolen.

Some of it is also inertia TBF, I'm not used to doing that stuff on smartphones, I don't like smartphone UI for anything that involves a lot of typing and I'm just not motivated to set it up.

If I wasn't using Graphene, holy shit standard Android is SO insecure and most third party ROMs like LineageOS aren't that much better.
