LineageOS 16.0 Pie launched on Nexus 6, Galaxy S5, OnePlus phones, and more

LineageOS 16.0, based on Android Pie, is now rolling out. The LineageOS team announced the update in a post yesterday (via Android Police), along with the device list, change log, and other updates.

LineageOS said it has dropped support for version 14.1, based on Android Nougat, as the latest version rolls out.
