How long is a piece of string?
AFAIK you have 3 choices - Arch, Mobian & postmarketOS. My choice is Arch - I am comfortable with pacman and believe there is a bigger repository of applications (especially with AUR) than pmOS. And I grew out of Mobian as found it too prescriptive.
As I write it may be that Arch is the only 1 of 3 that does not support PPP camera "out of the box" - doesn't affect me though as I have found sxmo runs just fine on my PP and so my PPP is in mothballs for the moment!
- ROCKPro64 v2.1 2GB, 16Gb eMMC for rootfs, SX8200Pro 512GB NVMe for /home, HDMI video & sound, Bluetooth keyboard & mouse. Arch (6.2 kernel, Openbox desktop) for general purpose daily PC.
- PinePhone Pro Explorer Edition, daily driver, rk2aw & U-boot on SPI, Arch/SXMO & Arch/phosh on eMMC
- PinePhone BraveHeart now v1.2b 3/32Gb, Tow-boot with Arch/SXMO on eMMC
