How do I charge my PinePhone safely?

Megous describes the operation of the USB-C bridge chip and its interaction with different types of USB chargers:

The short version is that 'dumb' chargers should work reliably, and that Battery Charging 1.2 spec chargers (5V, 2.1A) are a good bet. PD chargers are more hit-and-miss, and fall back to 0.5A under various circumstances. PD should get quite reliable once the various OS versions include the necessary firmware and driver parts, but we aren't there yet.
