I had my note 8 for longer than security updates existed so I installed lineageOS on it, it got security updates but lost a ton of other features and became buggy and slow. Maybe with other phones the experience is better.
I’m running a 2018 flagship using DivestOS (a fork of Lineage). It’s faster than most new phones, battery gets charged midday (because I hammer it), and I’d argue more secure than most (because I have a proper firewall and some other security tools.
If I were to not hammer on it, the battery would last for 10 hours+ (using just messaging apps, instead of ftp, file sync, games, etc).
