When you go to the website and click to download, you are redirected to a letter to the community. I heard there is/was a changing of the guard and development is on hiatus. Does this mean you can't download CalyxOS from them at all anymore? Is this a reflection of the actions google is taking with the play store?

Should I be looking at a different OS than CalyxOS? I'm currently running /e/ amd was interested in trying something else. Do you have any other suggestions of privacy driven OS's?

Sorry for so many questions 🤣

CalyxOS is not LineageOS + microG. It is a different operating system for mobile phones, based on LineageOS and includes microG, but it is not LineageOS + microG.

There is a different operating system, which is basically LineageOS + microG, called LineageOS for microG.
