Unofficial LOS Based on Oreo!
As development has stopped for Oreo, you will probably waiting awhile for Official PIE based release.
As an Official lineage dev, I can tell you development for Oreo has not stopped
still updates being pushed. Nougat has however, or will be, stopped soon. Two android versions officially at a time. 0 -

The XDA threads for WHYRED would probably disagree with you.
Only security patches been applied.
RR (based on LOS) has been given a final official Oreo build.
My Nexus 9 (on it's last legs, hardware failing) will probably be stuck on 23/08 Nougat Build. It is not even getting security patches anymore.Bluesky: ATProtoViewer ~ PWA + #Bookmarks + bsky share feature.
^^ My latest github pages experimental code.0 -

Why is everyone going crazy about security patches...it's like some people think they can't use there phone unless they have the most recent up to date blaady bla patch....I mean it wasn't too long ago that these patches didn't even exist and everyone seems to forget about android and viruses...?
Not having a go at you mate at all...it's just everywhere I read in different forums people are banging on about security patches...and then the encryption oh be the lordie...you'd swear that some people had national security documents on there little auld phones...lol lol...

Some people want security patches
Some people want 2k screens
Some people want dual sim
Some people want Amoled
Some people want LCD
Some people want headphone jacks
Some people want updates
Some people want unlockable bootloaders
Some people want dual front speakers
Some people want 16MP selfie cameras
If not we'd all just be using the same phone and you can rest assured that a lot of people will think what you want from a phone is pointless, the same as they'll think what I want from a phone is pointless.0 -

They all are when you're trying to speak sense to a developer I suppose.
But really, nothing is pointless if enough people deem them important.
Pointless is important to otherwise it wouldn't exist
But yes I get ya and it's true...I just want a simple auld phone that knows what button I'm gonna press next lol lol0 -

While RR is based on LOS, they are different people and they do their own thing.
Lineage will be supporting Oreo builds until Q comes out, at which point it will be dropped. While it may only be security patches, its still going to be supported and they will be merged, and bugs will still be fixed if they get found.
There are unofficial builds for Flounder (Nexus 9), but there have been issues with some hardware choices that require 'hacks' to get going, which goes against Lineage's policy, and needs an exception to be allowed to merge them. I don't believe the flounder maintainer has put in any requests.
Just because some individual devices will be dropped, doesn't mean official support for LOS15.1 devices will be dropped. If a new maintainer comes along and wants to maintain and make a device official on 15.1, they can.
For example, we just made chagalllte (Samsung galaxy tab s 10.5 LTE) official on 14.1 (Nougat) since its still an officially supported OS until official Pie builds start 0 -
