What about Lineage?
Don't get me wrong, LineageOS is great, I use it myself. However, LineageOS is primarily made as a way to still receive feature updates on phones no longer supported by the manufacturer. This means that they don't do things like switch DNS checks from Google to someone else, for example.
No uptick unfortunately.
