LineageOS don't bother with any other phone OSes
It's unfortunate that until PostMarketOS gets better support for phones like OnePlus 6, you really only have the original PinePhone. The PinePhone shares it's GPU with the Galaxy S2 (released 12 years ago). However, that OnePlus 6 support really is coming along. I still use my OnePlus7 as a bedside multimedia device and it works just fine.
So how does that work with say the pixel camera software?
I think fairphone has support for a foss os out of the box, other brands will take some more work and jailbreaking to get it working.
Unfortunately none, unless you can install /e/ custom rom on your phone
I did once on a nexus 5. It was a pain in the ass, but it can be done. What phones are easier to get root access (is that the proper term? Idk. I think in Canada they can't be carrier locked.)
Carrier locked != Locked bootloader
One keeps you tied to a single carrier, the other allows you to access the bootloader to load custom ROMs
Landline!
And dumb phones
