So the question is: I would love to buy PinePhone for me, is it possible with my linux level?

Anyone can buy a PinePhone - mastering it is another question ;-)
( some do sell them again shortly after recieving them )

Did you read and understand the warnings on a shop page about the state of the phone?

Do you know how to flash a SD card ? The Phone can boot with any OS of your choice from SD.

The KDE phone is actually a Manjaro phone with KDE (Plasma-mobile) user interface.
The previous one was a Manjaro phone with Phosh user interface.

No idea. Generally there are _very_ few apps available now - it is mostly a basic phone for now.
