I think /e/ looks promising.

Good to hear that some others have had success with Lineage. The sticky bit for me is that my phone is not on the official support list. I read that I can probably make it work, but I am expecting some major feature doesn't work, otherwise it would be listed.

/e/ sells refurbished phones preinstalled, which I think is a great idea. Only shipping in Europe right now, and they were ~ €450

Buying a working phone is a good move. Mainly because I need to have a spare before I try something like this anyway.

By coincidence, there is a story on Slashdot today about a recent Lineage fork called '/e/'.

I've used it on my Nexus 6, with mostly good results. Can't help with Pixel 2, sorry.

Has anyone here installed, successfully or not? If so, what device?

Strongly considering doing this on my Pixel2, but it requires a custom
compile, as the device is not in the official support list.

I would also consider something other than Lineage, if anyone has
recommendations.
