The patches provided by LOS aren't anywhere close enough to keep the phone secure/private. LineageOS breaks android security model in all but selected few devices, mainly Pixels I think. Your phone is very likely more secure by sticking to the original OS your phone shipped with.
- jeroenhd 1y agoMy old phone is vulnerable to a kernel RCE by anyone in the vicinity for simply having Bluetooth enabled. I doubt my phone is more secure sticking with the original OS. I am interested in why the LineageOS patches are causing security issues, though. Do you know where I can read more about this?

(use browser's or google's translate) GOS developers have many numerous comments about this, if you google "LineageOS grapheneos" you should also find plenty of them.
- RealStickman_ 1y agoGrapheneOS, or specifically Micay is known to be hostile to many other projects like microG, /e/ OS, Calxy etc. There are certainly truths to some of what they say, but it comes over as extremely hostile.
- wolvesechoes 1y agoHm, looks like it is more than just few security tweaks.
