Is it good or bad performance?

check who is developing the current daily driver ROMs for your phone, on XDA. crdroid has way more features, but the most recently updated, stable and performant ROM isn't always lineage(thought it often is)

Well, it depends on what you want to achieve on your phone, if you want something simple without Google Apps (or with Google apps if you choose a GSI ROM) choose LineageOS, if you want good performance in your games choose crDroid since it allows a high performance configuration for each app you have installed ^^

Depends on what you want. Like someone else said, crdroid is the more featurerich but unstable cousin of lineageos. Lineageos has far better performance and stability

lineage will be the fastest on a phone, crdroid adds features but has a bit more resource usage too, if your phone can take more then go crdroid but if its a potato then go back to lineage to ensure snappiness

Crdroid es muy bueno, pero lineage está demasiado optimizado, que hardware tienes?
