  • Nearly done! Migration cleanup is mostly done. There are a small number of issues left that we continue to work on, but all the heavy lifting is done. We still would love to hear feedback over at this thread and also check out the new XDA app! Thanks and we hope you enjoy the new forums, and thanks for your support of XDA <3

Wow this is awesome man! I'll keep a close eye to see if it's worth switching from Lineage. Will you keep an eye on LOS updates tho so this gets updated, tho?
