There is active development though.



It takes a lot of work to make a custom ROM and maintain it. Each one has a maintainer.

XDA is a great place to find Custom ROMs for many phones, including unofficial LineageOS ROMs that will/might become official after it’s stable.

For example, the OnePlus 11:


Think of the children” is such a dumb excuse that people keep using in the US to pass laws that restricts citizens and are anti-privacy.


Uh… Florisboard does have that though. It’s in the glide typing section of settings


The only time I click on ads are on websites that actually have people buying ad space on websites that make sense.

Like… Fountain pen ads on fountain pen blogs. Or Linux product ads on Linux learning websites.
