Since we don’t yet have a specific community for custom phone ROMs, let’s discuss them here. Are you running a custom ROM? Which one? On what hardware? How is it?

OnePlus Nord (the last phones before were OP 1, 3 and 5, great value phones imo), LineageOS. Had to use the unofficial version for a while, but they are official again, now.
I hate modern phones, especially the giant ones that people seem to like nowadays. My 2 favourite phones are my last pre-Android Phones (Nokia E71, blackberry style, with full kb), and my first Android the HTC Desire Z (T-Mobile G2 in the US; fold out full keyboard). I don’t need fancy cameras, and I don’t need a high-powered CPU.
Considering I’ve been using Android for about 13 years, I have probably been on an official ROM for less than a week :D Back then, I experimented a lot, custom kernels, custom roms, (nandroid backup really helped with that, a full phone backup that’s easy to restore, I miss that) I’ve even encountered ROMs that don’t have the mandatory feature of using volume control to move the text cursor, how do people live without that?
Anyway, now I just use LineageOS with no custom kernel. When I get a new phone (and I only get those with LineageOS available, for the Nord it was a bit annoying that they dropped support 2 months after I got it …), I flash it on arrival.
You sound like me. I don’t like large phones. The Nexus 5 was a perfect size. And I don’t use stock ROMs. I flash a phone as soon as I get it.
