There's also CalyxOS, low drama and very reliable. Https://www.calyxos.org

Can it run problem bank apps? I need a bank auth app for work as the bank stopped fobs and it just would not run on LineageOS. It refused to run because "the phone is insecure". I tried Magisk hiding stuff and MicroG, and a number of way of tricking methods. That's why I ended up on GrapheneOS, as a compromise without feeling too compromised. Everything seams to think it's on a normal Android phone, but I've sandboxed the Google tentacles. But it would be better if mandating OS wasn't allowed. If I want to run a "insecure" phone, that's my "problem".

Agreed, it shouldn't be their problem. But, I am using applications just fine that are sensitive to root, even device attestation, but I don't recommend attestation just out of principle.

Even pokemon go seem to run ok with just micro g and aurora.
