Cyanogen's death and what it means for our devices

[skinnyflirter]

As you might know, Cyanogen is shutting down its services soon. Wileyfox was one of the few brands to use it. So what will happen? Are our phones going to die, without a Nougat-flavoured update? According to a Wileyfox official, they won't.

Yeah, Dealt with that dude before, (Stefano)

Completely wrong, wouldn't trust a word he/she/they said....

When I tried ordering a battery from them, he kept telling me he can't give me a tracking number as it's an international shipments.

WTF.......

So anything he/she says is bound to be wrong,
Gonna give it some time, then gonna try my luck with one of the roms available , crdroid look to be nougat flavored, and get regular updates.

Unless somebody has a pixel style ROM for our phone?

So how will it come out?
As a ota update?

Will it not be a CyanogenMod anymore? So it's name will change?
