Got a android recently and wanted to replace the default os with a new one, I’ve seen mentions of others (lineage OS, Graphite OS) but wanted to know what are some good ones and why.

LineageOS is your most likely bet. Check the lineage website and see if your specific phone model is supported. LineageOS maintainers are all volunteers so it’s hit or miss which devices any of them have chosen to support. If there’s no official support someone may have built an unofficial ROM for your phone over on the XDA forums, many times that’s the only place to find support. Google “LineageOS XDA yourModelHere” if you don’t see your phone on the official list of lineage supported devices.
In the future it’s a good idea to check for LineageOS support before buying a phone if Lineage support is one of your priorities.
