What is Lineage or what basically is CyanogenMod?
The CyanogenMod [Lineage OS] is one of the best known custom Roms out there, enabling millions of users around the world to custom their devices. CyanogenMod is so popular that the people behind CyanogenMod started cyanogen inc & developed partnerships with phone manufacturers that have CyanogenMod as the default OS.
Google releases the source code for Android via the Android open source project. As this project allows anyone to download the source code for stock Android & later modify to their liking. Many developers try & further optimize the Operating system to improve performance. When people talk about flashing Roms, they are referring to overwriting the old version of Android that is installed & replacing it with a third party alternative like the CyanogenMod.
The term Rom is not necessarily used correctly while talking about the 3rd party custom firmware. The smartphones & tablets use flash memory to store the Android operating system. The CyanogenMod started out as a simple alternative to stock Android on the HTC dream & HTC magic devices. With the initial release of the CyanogenMod 3.1 with Android open source ability to obtain the root access. So anything is possible with the popularity of custom Roms.
The Lineage OS 15.1 only supports a bunch of devices which includes Nexus 5X, Nexus 6P, Samsung Galaxy Tab S2, Xiaomi Mi 5S, Xiaomi Mi 5S Plus etc. So you can use Lineage OS right now, if you have any of these devices or other that support Lineage OS. By using Lineage OS, the experience you get is supreme in terms of usability & smoothness. It’s almost like the phone came built in with this Rom. Everything like camera, audio & fingerprint is working as they work in a stable Rom. Moreover, the performance is top notch. The UI is fast & responsive just like a stock ROM without lag by switching between the Apps.

The main reason behind installing a custom ROM is to add features, improved performance & change the look of stock Android. As this is exactly what you get with CyanogenMod. There are features in CyanogenMod which are simply not available in stock Android. Like applying different themes or the ability to change the status bar to your liking. The CyanogenMod brings a lot to the table in terms of freedom with root access. As the root access gives you the administrator rights to your device file system.
