CyanogenMod 13.0 Release 1 Released (androidpolice.com)
An anonymous reader writes: CyanogenMod 13.0 Release 1 is now available as the Android community's first release based off Google's 6.0 Marshmallow. [...]
Not long after Google released the code for Android Marshmallow, CyanogenMod started rolling out nightly builds. Now, CyanogenMod has officially released its first Snapshot release for those looking for more stable development. Many of the improvements detail changes to the privacy settings. For example, CyanogenMod 13.0 has removed encrypted Whisperpush text messaging, and Privacy Guard has been altered to comply with Marshmallow's new permission model. Some other changes include a new AOSP SMS/MMS application, memory screen that shows memory usage over a selected period of time, new controls for the status bar icons, and an enhanced Snap camera app based on Qualcomm's Snapdragon camera. A Cyanogen Apps pack is not yet available, but should be coming in a week or so.

Since he asked let me add a question myself: now that CyanogenMod is in bedsheets with M$....
CyanogenMod isn't in bed with Microsoft. You're thinking of Cyanogen Inc., which commercializes CyanogenMod and includes MS services, but CyanogemMod doesn't align with any single provider, and can be used with Google, Amazon or FDroid app stores, or no app store at all.

BTW. I actually find the Microsoft Arrow Launcher quite good.
