EDIT: Added soft- to the title, since it was pissing people off. Maybe I'm still wrong. Idk, it's just a meme.

I was astonished that I installed lineage with microg on my xiaomi last year and without bricking it not even once.
it usually is pretty painless if you don't buy a brand new device or a very popular one. but idiot me always gets a 2 month old extremely obscure device.
Any Pixel or Fairphone will work even if brand new usually. With Pixels you dont even need a bootloader unlock code, but they are honestly kinda trash devices in terms of repairabilty and features. Get yourself a Fairphone fellas, best decision i ever made (If you can live with a bit of thicc boi of a phone). Slap CalyxOS on dat thang and enjoy life.
