Re: Great news
>Why are you relying on your provider? Why don't you have LineageOS/any custom ROM/your own builds from source (which is easy to do if you have device/kernel/vendor trees)?
You're probably joking, but LineageOS users will get it sooner than the average joe.
I'm one of the former, and I currently have the May security pacth level since May 17th when I last updated.
Building from source, though...not really. I did it once when Lineage had build system issues and haven't published a ROM update for some time, and it's not a trivial amount of effort. Ultimately, the most important issue was that my own build was using a separate signing key, and I couldn't get back to the official LOS build using OTA update. These days they publish official builds daily, with the occasional hiccup of a few days once in a while.
