TL;DR: Anyone got a CM11 based ROM for Crackling they could link to please?

Longer version:
Upgraded to CM13 a while back to try out Marshmallow. Its OK I guess - less irritating than Lollipop certainly - but I'm not loving the way it handles SD cards. I had been using Link2SD to link apps to a second EXT partition but Marshmallow reads this as corrupt and keeps wanting to reformat it. I read a few descriptions and thought that adoptive storage (AKA format as internal) sounded pretty much like what Link2SD did, so fair enough, formatted my card (for the record this is a 64 GB card not the 32 GB card Wileyfox says it can handle, but was working fine otherwise). After the format I was able to move about 3GB to the SD card but a lot of apps don't move - looking at them they're pretty much all ones which can put widgets on screen. I'm not exactly short of space at the moment but this irritates me - especially as I can't seem to directly access the card to install other things on it (like the offline Wikipedia files needed for Kiwix). Prior to that I found the extra security put on the SD card more of a hinderance than a benefit.

Anyhow, looked for a ROM to return to Kitkat but all of the Crackling ROMs on CyanogenMod are for CM13, with the exception of an experimental CM12 - I fell out of love with Lollipop about ten seconds after looking at the interface so I don't want to go back to that (although I imagine that if I had all three of them together Marshmallow would look a lot more like Lollipop than it does Kitkat) so would much prefer going back to CM11, although if anyone can find an alternative to my current issue that'd work too!

Cheers,

Jon.
