It exists and is called graphene OS. It is primarily focused on privacy and security though and as such only supports google pixels since they have both good hardware security and fast security patches. Most others fail at one of the two.

Otherwise you could install calyx OS.

Oh tysm! Will Calyx OS work on a Samsung Galaxy phone? Mine's a cheap model. lol. I looked up their page and i doesn't list Samsung phones among devices supported. I'll check Graphene as well. :)

I'm not sure, I got a used Pixel so I can use graphene.
