What OS to run on fp4 (sh.itjust.works)

I am looking at getting a fp4. (Pretty seriously, I am typing this on an older phone because I listed my newer phone on eBay to switch) I want a good, privacy focused operating system to run on it and was wondering what you all run and what your experiences have been. My main concerns are:

  1. Support - I don’t want my operating system maintained by just 1 or 2 random people on github.

  2. Features - I want the basic stuff to work but am concerned about the fingerprint sensor and cameras.

  3. Privacy - I want something ideally completely degoogled.

  4. Stability - I don’t know much about android but I use Debian lts if that tells you anything about the kind of update schedule I want.

I know this is a lot to ask of an os but do you have any recommendations?

Looks cool. I will try /e/os first because Murena will pre-install it but I will try this unless I absolutely love e.

Note that /e/os is based on LineageOS.

That is interesting and definitely a point in favor of lineage os for me. I’m still gonna try e because it comes pre installed and it would be silly not to try it first, but lineage os looks really good.

but with superflous apps and a layer not needed

I don’t see any downvotes. Does defederation effect whose downvotes show up?
