I've already commented on other peoples comments but I'll say it again.

Lineage OS exists and works well with F-droid

Sadly not compatible with everything, though. My phone is off the list ☹️

Well, if you can unlock the bootloader you can port it assuming the device manufacture is in compliance with the GPL.

Might be easier to just look into a supported device when the old one breaks.

Most people can port anything. And most of the ones who can have better uses for their time.

That's why I said it might be easier to find a device that already has maintainers
