Like pine OS? I love Linux but I don't hate myself enough to try to DIY arch onto my phone hardware, I've already sunk enough hours into getting video and audio working on my desktop
Yeah, I'd like to see a phone come with linux pre-installed by the manufacturer. It's one thing to change over a PC, but I'm certainly not technically skilled enough for a phone

What’s your hardware setup like? Between the archinstall script, ALSA drivers being good finally, and AMD hardware working brilliantly with mesa, sound and video has pretty much worked out of the box for years. Unless you’re using an Nvidia card. Then you’re SOL
There's plently of open source mods of android that let you sideload as much google apps as you need. LineageOS is the most popular and stable by a long shot.
Works fairly out of the box, except for the whole part of flashing onto the phone in the first place.
Looks like another fad OS that's "focused on privacy". I can't find a list of what phones they support. It just says, "pixel 3 or newer", which makes me suspect it only supports pixels.
Same, it'd be cool to see pine phone or something take off , or like Huawei or Xiaomi come up with their own phone OS
Why do that when there are perfectly good linux distros to fork?
postmarketOS will be usable as a daily driver one of these days

Lineage doesnt allow you to lock the bootloader tho. Calyx is the new cool kid iirc
