LinageOS is sadly available only on the most popular devices.

To be fair, that almost certainly include Apple devices if installing 3rd party OS's would supported. Especially as the Asahi Linux project for macs has already done a lot of the hard work.

I currently have a Galaxy S5 running Android 13 in front of me and it's as snappy as a modern device just bought from the store.

The camera is of course the biggest drawback but apart from that, everything is fine.

Did you say this to support parents argument?

The Galaxy S5 was one of the most popular phones and I especially bought it some years ago, because LineageOS support was supposed to be good. And it did run kind of ok, but certainly not "as snappy as a modern device just bought from the store".

https://wiki.lineageos.org/devices/ looks like it's hundreds of devices.

It's hundreds of devices that have been supported at some point. It's far fewer that have official builds of the current version. The Pixel 3 line (2019) for example, doesn't have builds of LineageOS 20 (Android 13), though there are still updates for the LineageOS 19 (Android 12) builds.
