Ive wanted to try custom phone os's but im not sure where to start, my phones are not supported from the few ive gathered over time also most of them are "trash" as some may say. So im wondering what phone to get and where from, also what mobile os do your prefer over other ones?

does this vary on multiple factors?

My first experience with a custom ROM was the cheapest pixel 3 for I think $80 AUD back in 2021 and grapheneOS.

Just went past every 2nd hand store/pawn shop every weekend untill I found what I needed.
