CyanogenMod, which was the base of most custom Android ROMs at one point. After taking venture funding, incompetent business majors crashed and burned the project trying to commercialize it. It was then forked and LineageOS was born.

My big question is, why not fork the original first and commercialize that instead. So much forking around the wrong ways! /s

It's a forked up world.
