Sorry, not sure where to post this. So, I have a OnePlus X, can I somehow get Android 9.0 on it? Android 6.1 is really bad.

It's a Custom ROM (Basically a modified version of Android made to work on that phone), it's a somewhat complicated process to install these but not too difficult, there are plenty more ROMs available here. Just pick one with the features you want an usually there is a small tutorial explaining how to install it (though most of the time it requires you to reset your phone before installing)

why no dark mode?

YES, as someone who has a bootloader unlocked, custom rom equipped G6: make backups! (I would recommend TWRP/Orangefox (if available, Orangefox is awesome but it's pretty new, TWRP is on just about everything) AND Titanium Backup for specific apps (also be sure to move the backups off the phone before wiping/flashing (If your phone has an SD Card slot it's a lot easier)

Custom ROMs are usually pretty damn optimized, I had Oreo 8.1 on an Galaxy S5 and that was snappy and a WAY better experience than stock marshmallow. (though some things like installing apps were quite slow)

I have a oneplus 3 and it has android 9 on it, oneplus is really good at keep up with new versions even on their old phones. Did you actually check for updates?

 

If android 6 is the highest it goes there might be some hardware limitation and you're probably better off sticking with it.

I'd start here: https://www.getdroidtips.com/custom-rom-oneplus-x/

 

Pretty much assume you might lose everything so try and do as much backups as you can if you want.

The worst thing that can happen is a softbrick. Not a big issue. But do it only if you are comfortable.
