To add to what you said, I would like to add that there is a great app on F-Droid that centralizes way to see all devices and which ROMs/custom recoveries a particular device support, XDA thread for specific device, download links to specific ROM for specific device etc, so it saves you a lot of time.
Comment on Phone brand that lets you fully unlock bootloader

LineageOS (a custom Android OS) has list of all phones which it supports. Since you can’t install custom OS without unlocking bootloader, you can consider this as list of phones with unlockable bootloader

this is so much better but why does it need to be Android app instead of a website ?
