The current revision mentions an initial release on 24 December 2016, but the official website mentions no official builds as of December 28. Isn't "the initial release" the release of the software, instead of the project launch date (or that of the source code)? Saturnalia0 (talk) 02:17, 29 December 2016 (UTC)
There needs to be a pronunciation guide, as many people (especially those who don't know English very well) clearly mispronounce it in videos. Choco-mint flavor (talk) 07:03, 21 January 2017 (UTC)
"LineageOS includes many useful apps, but none of the bloatware that is normally pre-installed by the phone's manufacturer or carrier".
This doesn't sound neutral at all, this implies that all software coming from manufacturers and carriers is bloatware. Which is not only weird language choice (there's no clear definition of "bloatware"), but also a very dubious claim that would need some sources. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 202.21.128.254 (talk) 02:30, 20 October 2017 (UTC)
Since 15.1 is out I expect wikipedians (excluding myself) to change the picture to what it should be (currently). Daren47 (talk) 04:39, 27 February 2018 (UTC)
I think the article would be more credible if language which looks to be sales-pitch focussed was rephrased or removed, e.g. "LineageOS includes many essential and useful apps, but, like its predecessor CyanogenMod, is free from the bloatware often pre-installed by a phone's manufacturer or carrier.". One person's 'essential app' may be another person's "bloatware".
Perhaps this could be rephrased to something like "the Lineage core development team [or whover makes the decision] seeks to distibute an operating system with a limited number of applications they have decided are essential, in order to reduce package size". This might then open up a link or discussion as to how such a selection is made. thanks. --mgaved (talk) 13:13, 28 March 2018 (UTC)
There should be a microG page. Could you help make the draft, Draft:MicroG, better? -- Yae4 (talk) 18:21, 3 September 2019 (UTC)
VoLTE and Vowifi (wifi Calling) ?
What version can do it? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A02:6D40:34B8:D901:FD10:DD8E:1B33:FEC1 (talk) 13:21, 17 June 2020 (UTC)
The latest release is 18.0, and the latest preview is 17.1. Sin Jeong-hun (talk) 10:50, 26 February 2021 (UTC)
Having installed LineageOS v17.1 (Android v10) on several eBay purchased obsolete Samsung phones and tablet, I have found it a very usable along with F-Droid, Aurora Droid and Aurora Store app store. It would be great if this Wikipedia article could list a few of the popularly used phones and their ROM code names. I have not been able to find anywhere that makes a list. The phones and tablet I use were purchased on low price rather than decent support. LineageOS has enormous potential for those who value privacy from Google Play Services and OEM spy / bloatware.
I'm listing a few popular devices and LineageOS codenams in a bid to help people who have stumbled here to find out about supported phones

The article lead says it's Android-based, but Android is a family of different operating systems, distributions, or "ROMs" (as they're known). Android is too broad, IMO. It should say it's based on Android Open Source Project to clear up potential misconceptions. 91.151.136.222 (talk) 16:23, 17 October 2023 (UTC)
