Got my pinephone convergence version a couple weeks ago, so I decide to see how it goes with gentoo installed on it, I created the pinephone specific packges in my local ebuild repository ( https://gitlab.com/bingch/gentoo-overlay.git ) from various sources and finally I got gentoo running on it.
It turns out pinephone is quite usable as a normal linux desktop too, I installed gdm on it and hooked it up with an external monitor and mouse and keyboard, then launched gnome wayland session, running firefox, watching youtube etc inside gnome shell is quite smooth
