LineageOS has needed exactly zero tinkering from me on the last three phones I've had.
I hear this all the time from people: "I used to root/flash and it was a hassle so I stopped." And yet they still talk about it as if they're doing it now.
What you remember is not how it currently is. Graphene and Lineage are stable ROMs. It's not this nightmare people keep claiming it is
@deweydecibel @peter Agreed! I've recently been trying roms on a Pixel 7 and it's nothing like the dark ages. Just READ the install guide, make sure your computer is configured properly, and follow the steps. I've ran Graphene, Calyx, and Lineage on my P7. The only problems I've had were related to something I didn't do correctly. Stop, READ, rinse, and repeat. Modern rooms are fantastic and they let you regain control of your device.
Possibly, the last time I flashed an OS was 2019 and I lost a lot of features that i had on the stock rom and had a lot of battery life and lag issues.
