The nogenMod 14.1 nightlies is expected to be stable enough as daily driver for Nightly builds. The CyanogenMod 14.1 nightlies is the best alternative to the OxygenOS that OnePlus has.
The CyanogenMod 14.1 nightlies may not have some of the software featured in OnePlus, like the Shelf, but it offers a lot more new software that are very useful.
OnePlus X is one of the OnePlus devices that didn't get a Nougat update, and it is definitely a great thing that CyanogenMod 14.1 nightlies brings that update to the device. The CyanogenMod 14.1 nightlies will bring to the OnePlus X the same experience featured in the CM 14.1 ROM on other devices.
In another note, Cyanogen recently announced that it will stop supporting its CyanogenMod and that there will be no nightly builds coming out in 2017. But the code will still be available as open source to people who wants to use CM personally. Cyanogen, however, still hopes that the initiative will still continue to work for eight more years.
