Direct replacement for Cyanogen would be Lineage. There are dozens of decent ROMs to try though.
I still opted for iOS in the end. As much shit as Apple pulls, they did 6 year software updates when only flagship Androids got 3 and they aren’t generally trying to dominate the Internet.

I know, but as a software engineer, I just hate reading through other people’s code and I don’t have time for tinkering anymore. Apple’s ecosystem is convenient for me and that matters more now. Used to care more of course.
I dont mind giving a company money for a product, then the transaction ends . What i don"t want is to buy a car then have the car sell my daily location to people.
