I have a Redmi Note 11, I am planning to install a custom ROM. This is the first time I’m about to do something like this.

How good of a reputation does the Paranoid Android OS have? Will I get good long term support? How functional is it?

After years of ROM-ing phones, I recommend using LineageOS. They are going to have the longest support for a given phone. If your phone is available in their list, that means it is well supported with all functionality.

Ah. Sorry, I should have looked it up for you before I commented. I see someone else posted an unofficial version. You’d probably be happy with that, though not being official does kind of remove the advantage over other ROMs.

Oh don’t worry about it, mistakes happen.

Paranoid Android seems to be working on Android 14 right now and they are regularly publishing updates on their discord/telegram groups. They seem like a pretty active team, I’ll just go ahead and flash the ROM I guess.

I’ve already seen this page before.

The title says [UNOFFICIAL] and the rom isn’t available in the actual LineageOS official website. Is this version really safe?
