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.
I opted not to install lineage/postmarket/cyanogen on my previous phone, purely because some of the hardware facilities wouldn't work properly - at least that's what my research told me. That was a Samsung S6, mind you. Something to do with proprietary binary drivers for the camera and wifi IIRC, could be remembering incorrectly tho.
I havn't looked into the Pixel2's compatibility, but I'm definitely interested to see if it works out for you.

Works a treat on my Nexus 4.
Also check out Carbon Rom.

I have used LineageOS on an Samsung S3 (at this time it was CyanogenMod instead), S5, and S8 successfully and happily.
By coincidence, there is a story on Slashdot today about a recent Lineage fork called '/e/'.

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.
