I'm using Havoc OS now. It's very good and comes with notch compatible(gapps)
Go to guides and news tab and you see there how to install gsi roms

Whichever GSI I've installed had major lags, which made it unusable for me. Especially when opening an app from recents. Stock is the most fluid, so I got stuck with it.

Mi A2 Lite supports project treble, so it should be able to boot GSI without any hiccups. But here we are...

Sorry for my bad english
before installing twrp or any modification, you have to unlock bootloader (this will erase your data but it's not important you will delete while flashing)

I used the method you mentioned but Havoc and PixelDust ROM were lagging . Is it me, or do you have small lags too?

Yes i had lags like you and it is boring as f*ck
When i heard the 10.0.3.0 is released, i moved to that quickly
Havoc OS Is funny but it is laggy
I'm in stock rom right now and it is really fast and not laggy

I hated the square UI on stock, so I rooted the phone with Magisk and installed Substratum. Now I'm using Pixel theme on play store it's free and awesome. No more boring colors and ugly square corners. [If you want to install a substratum theme, make sure it supports Pie, otherwise the device will bootloop ]
