Only consider CalyxOS and GrapheneOS. Ideologues will push you exclusively towards GrapheneOS but it's not th be-all solution for all people that they think it is. My current and previous phone are GrapheneOS. It's fine. It does what I want. I don't find it amazing only because it's a phone, not a new discovery. I use GrapheneOS with F-Droid with all anti-features disabled in F-Droid settings and I have all the apps I need.
Lineage will likely wirk with random phones, that dosn't mean it's quality. I say, if a phone OS works on LG, Samaung, Nokia, and a Chinese company phone, I don't trust the stability of the OS.
I see the name e/OS around, I don't hear it ever mentioned in public discussions, I think it's for Fairphone or one of those gimmick name phones.
I've never heard of DivestOS before you mentioning it.
What's wrong with GrapheneOS?
Nothing, the grand parents said "it's fine"
