I suggest a Google Pixel, they have the least issues with custom roms since they basically already run stock android.

I run Lineage on my Pixel 4a 5G + MindTheGApps, works fantastic.
I plan on switching to LineageOS next year once my 4a 5G system updates run out
If you're in the USA, you're pretty much stuck with the Pixel line or certain OnePlus models. VoLTE is not working on most custom ROMs in the US.
Went with the Pixel 5. It's working well so far. I got a used factory unlocked model in good condition for $175
Sweet. I'm still on a 3a.
Fairphone 4, I won't go back to non-repairable ones
That phone looks pretty awesome! The price is outside of my range for the time being though
Been out of the custom ROM game on Android for a while, so I may be off the mark. But if I were going to get back in, Pixel 6a is some pretty good hardware bang for the buck. As long as you don't need a giant screen or premium build quality, I think I'd go that route.
