The ultimate one year review: daily driving the PinePhone
The author recommends PostmarketOS Stable channel, and also Mobian. Since Debian is one of my usual distros I reflashed to Mobian + Phosh, and the stability has been fine.
When Pine64 announced that Manjaro+Plasma would be the preinstalled OS for the Pinephone Pro, some wag on Reddit said, "So the only one that doesn't work. Great."
I have Mobian + Phosh on one, and Arch + SXMO on the other.
postmarketOS is by far the lightest distro and one of the only ones without systemd (along with Slackware and Gentoo), but the repo's were way too barebones to my taste, so I gave up on that.
Like beta-user said, phones in general tend to be pre-installed with heavily outdated software, this isn't exclusive to PinePhone.
Just running "sudo pacman -Syyu" once and you should be good to go.

Don't worry about Mobian not having a stable channel, the "testing" channel is pretty rock solid.
