Good news. The Oneplus One is still very much supported by the ROM community.
If you want Android, I would suggest LineageOS https://lineageos.org/ which you can download from here:

Or if you are feeling adventurous there is Ubuntu Touch https://ubports.com/ which you can download here:

I've got time this afternoon and live near downtown Cary.
