The PinePhone is close to daily driver material, poor battery life and intermittent software failure notwithstanding. If you don't need any applications which aren't native to Linux, you're good to go.
I may be more forgiving than others; just my two cents.

I've attempted to build a system from the wiki and took a step back and realized it was above my head and to simply stay with mint to bump up to Debian and one Arch. With that being said to you use Mobian more so than Arch ? I could be wrong but with the brief ownership on the PMOS edition. I felt Mobian was the OS to come out of top of functionality of all the OS's is that fair to say as of now ?
