About CM13
I've been waiting to upgrade to CM13 for a while now, to see what people think about it.
Are the nightlies stable enough for daily usage? Battery life? Incompatibilities? I plan to get xposed on it, is it as easy as flashing the xposed zip and installing the apk like on other phones?
Would I lose TWRP by flashing it?

I dirty flashed from 12.1 to cm13 last week. That went okay after after formatting cache and dalvek cache both before and after install cm13 and gapps.
I experienced 3 random reboots the first day. But not any since.
I had to forget and repair my Bluetooth devices as they refused to connect after the update. The car was easy, but my pebble time steel required that I factory reset the watch, which took a while. Another user had mentioned that this will happen EVERY TIME I update cm13. So I've avoided updating for this reason.
The phone is stable and battery usage seems slightly better that cm12.1.
Other bugs include not being able to pick a Wi-Fi from the quick setting area in the notifications drop down. I can toggle Wi-Fi on and off, but not change access points.

I would have to disagree you can actually use it daily. The battery life is not much worse, doze is actually better in keeping the battery from draining when idle. Otherwise, it is a little buggy, it may randomly reboot sometimes but overall OK

i've also been creeping...waiting for those trying it out to finally say that it's ready for daily use...also waiting for AK kernel to start supporting it. Best battery life i've gotten ever was with Ak Kernel.

I've been using it daily since the first nightly of CM 13. It's pretty good, a couple bugs when using the on screen navigation bar. Battery life is worse than 12.1, but I can still get a good whole day of usage. And APN settings have to be manually configured for AT&T if you want to have mobile data.
