I used to install custom roms all the time back before knox on Samsung, now I cannot be bothered, usually something in the roms does not work among other bugs, it takes too long to keep up to date on rooting stuff etc, the support for roms is abysmal. I started to lose interest around the time banking apps started detecting root and not working, there were ways around it with magisk but it was complicated and could not find decent documentation on it.
It just became simpler to use what's out of the box and the newer phones I started buying had very little in the way of custom roms to start with.
It must be a long time since you ran a custom ROM. I use GrapheneOS and that is far from the case.
If the recent drama with the former lead dev of GrapheneOS is any indication, putting our trust in a singular entity in charge of custom ROMs is also risky.
Last I heard the person in question stepped down. Made me consider to switch to Pixel with grapheneos
