It is a dodgy Android distro for several reasons.
LineageOS has no such shenanigans nor has a pattern of suspicious funding.

There are threads on YC almost every week/month promoting that dodgy distro. Inside them are the comments with proper details from plenty of other YC users.
For the sake of avoiding repetition or bias, just do your own research. There is a search box at the end of the page.
you're all over this thread saying this, can you link an article or at least explain what you mean?
In the time you've spent writing all these vague comments you could have just cleared up the confusion. I cared enough to read a comment you would write out, i really don't care enough to go research it
Can you see how you look like a bad faith actor by making claims and they telling others to research your facts?
That's because there aren't really any. Yes, it's kinda maddening that the best hardware to de-Google your life is to give Google even more money and buy a Google phone, but, after having used that search box, all I could find are complaints that it's not very usable because they disabled so much shit in the name of security and privacy, but I saw nothing where it fails at the technical details in protecting privacy. There's some purist bit about the timing of updates and availability of source due to embargoes, but even they are being practical in that case. So no, unless I missed something, it's not common knowledge, and you're just pretending there is to make it seem like there is something there when there isn't.
That is the first red flaming flag, yet you dismiss it like nothing albeit so many cybersec experts point out the same thing (references you can search them on previous discussions)
The second is forgetting things like actively promoting the usage of US government developed and sponsored tech like signal and Tor.
Then let's look at that availability of source code, which for some "reason" doesn't come out. Lest but not least, don't even wonder about their financing sources and constant spamming on sites like this as if there aren't better options.
You can bot away and say none of this matters. It does matter, not everyone here is dumb and I'll keep complaining no matter how many times the other bots downvote what is obviously just another gov-sponsored operation.

What are these reasons?

What pattern of suspicious funding?
