I currently use LineageOS on my pixel. Is it worth trying GraphineOS?

On a Pixel from 6 upwards? Absolutely. GrapheneOS is what Android should be in terms of privacy and security. Its major drawback is only being available on Pixels, but if that is what you have…

I bought my Pixel 6 specifically to run GrapheneOS, and I really hope I can repeat that for my next device.

		It's a crying shame that there isn't a Graphene compatible phone that also has a micro SD slot and headphone jack. The perfect phone just doesn't exist in our timeline

GrapheneOS is by far the better OS security and privacy wise.

It should be the default choice for everyone IMO, as long as they have a phone that supports it.

My rule is: if you can run GrapheneOS, you should run GrapheneOS.

My second rule is: if you are buying a new phone and can afford one that supports GrapheneOS (at the moment it means a Pixel), then you should go for that.

I haven't used LineageOS for a long time, but I remember it being really good. And I used cyanogenmod which IIRC was it's predecessor.

GraapheneOS is a different ball game IMO, especially if you need to use Google play services etc, banking apps etc. I'm not sure what the current state of microg is or Google services on lineage.

I bought a second hand pixel 6, just for Graphene and when that died I bought another pixel.
