I am really tempted to try and set this up on one of my devices. Never messed with this before so it's a bit intimidating

I have no idea what I'm doing but I imagine I should be able to. I have a xiaomi redmi note 10 and a galaxy tab a8 tablet laying around not really being used.

Follow the guides, if you have a supported phone. It is really nice for supported devices. But do follow the instructions exactly.

I think Lineage supports both of those.

Check https://wiki.lineageos.org/devices/

Also check out DivestOS, it's a fork of Lineage, supports fewer devices.

Divest is currently running a fundraiser to support further development. If the goal isn't reached, the project will be set aside.

Just something to keep in mind. I'm using it, and I hope it can continue, because it really is great.
