I don't recall the Moto G stylus being on the list of unofficial Lineage OS builds. I'm just a novice so is rooting always required to install it as opposed to just debloating. That would be much easier to do and would result in a more user friendly phone. There's a debloating thread here that links a debloat guide. I may attempt this but I'm reluctant especially since there isn't any follow up. progress, status reports. Suggesting these projects may have failed or have been abandoned?

I don't want to bite off more than I can chew and end up bricking my phone. I doubt you live in Vegas so do you know of a good developer/tech here or in Henderson, NV that can provide this service for me on 1 or more of my personal phones? Or can you locate one through your network? I've gone by several cell repair shops and most have closed their doors or they're clueless which also gives me pause.

Unofficial lists of unofficial LOS builds aren't really updated (or trustworthy in my opinion), the Moto G Stylus xda group is definitely the least active of the three but if you want to see what other people are saying you can look at the Moto G8 (Moto G Fast) and the Moto G Power xdas. Most support and rom postings are now on the telegram however so its probably best to check there. Its a bit less riskier to hard brick your phone because of ab partitioning and the bootloader and recovery are separate now. Motorola also has flashfiles which can help you recover from a hard brick situation making it possible to recover. I would say if youre afraid to attempt it or if anything goes wrong to get help from the MotoG8Official telegram.

Weird, I don't think I've had or heard of an issue with the battery/notification light, im pretty sure there's a setting to enable/disable it but I haven't personally actively used the los builds so I don't know if it exists, where it would be, or what it starts as.

You can actually take the payload.bin from any rom and extract it using a python script then you'll get the images that should be flashable.

I am encountering a strange bug. Every time I go to settings>system the app crashes. I just did a clean install.

Edit: I installed again, but this time I actually went into my recovery and did a wipe and format, everything working smoothly.

This work on the Moto Stylus 2021 I assume ? And have to downgrade to Android 10, correct ? I upgraded to 11 not knowing. Still waiting for OEM Unlock to enable (new device, takes a week apparently). Any advice n how to expedite it ? Thanks in advance
This isnt for the 2021 stylus mate, wrong forum im afraid. Pretty sure you are looking for the below forums:
