Are PinePhones Becoming More Usable On Each Release . . .
#7
I simply use a couple of SD cards to try different OSs and to have a look how they improved. Mobian is on par with Arch (both take a couple of steps ahead but also some back from time to time) but i´m used to Arch so i feel a little more at home with it. I have a 3rd SD with Sailfish (sadly no progress lately) and a 4th with something else (e.g.Manjaro but that one is far behind or Ubports which unfortunately shows not much progress either). Neither runs flawlessly (Sailfish being an exception when it comes to stability but it drains the battery and isn´t fully functional) but at least Mobian and Arch are progressing nicely after all. PMOS is still installed on the phone of course.

This is not meant to criticize the devs of other OSs. It depends on your personal preferences. Manjaro devs try hard to integrate Anbox (which i´m not that interested in, i don´t see the point in having a Linux phone to run Android SW on it) and Ubports devs are busy purging parts of the system that are becoming to old to keep.
