Dan,
This phone can be a lot of fun! I learned a lot setting mine up. Find a distro that you know the best and go with it! 
I use Arch Linux on EVERYTHING, so... I think Arch works well. 

See this post for a complete install and setup.

2023 May through today my daily driver is a PinePhonePro running DanctNIX Arch with Phosh
2021 May through 2023 May my daily driver was a PinePhone running DanctNIX Arch with Phosh

I am running DanctNIX Arch with Phosh on a PinePhonePro and I have not had any of the issues people keep talking about. Calls, VoLTE, SMS, MMS, cell broadcast messages, voice mail, internet, Wifi, 4G data, mobile hot spot, calendar, calendar notifications, contacts, syncthing, Navigation with GPS and offline maps via osmin work, connecting Google accounts work, Groupme via firefox, Facebook via firefox ALL WORK. Calls, SMS, MMS all work from sleep.

I have not tested alarms from sleep. I have not tested any bluetooth items. The camera somewhat works with compiling my own packages. I currently use an Android device to take pictures and syncthing puts them on the PinePhonePro.

Device: PinePhone 32Gig (Used for building packages)
Device: PinePhonePro (Daily driver)
OS: DanctNIX Arch with Phosh
Carrier: USA - Patriot Mobile (T-Mobile SIM)
EG25 Firmware: Biktorgj 0.8.0
ADSP Version: 01.003
