I have tried, a long time ago, LineageOS on Samsung Galaxy S3 and S4. The both of the ports were so buggy, that by those experiences I could not trust the maintainers to be capable of securing the system. It may have been a false assumption

Sounds quite familiar. I was 11 years and struggling with assembler on Atari ST. There was a short series of 68000 assembly basics in a Finnish computer magazine (MikroBitti) and some sources on disk magazines (Maggie by The Lost Boys).
