LineageOS 17.1 is here, but the 16.0 branch is sticking around
The LineageOS 17.1 custom ROM, based on Android 10, is finally here. However, until all the devices supported by the custom ROM get updated (or fall out of support through other means), the 16.0 branch based on Android 9 Pie will stick around. Since the last time we covered LineageOS 16, a handful of phones have been dropped.
Three Exynos-based Samsung devices are no longer receiving builds, due to licensing issues; the Galaxy A3 2016 (a3xelte), Galaxy A5 2016 (a5xelte), and Galaxy S5 Neo (s5neolte) have all been pulled from support.
