Hello,
We don't know which OS you are using.
I would suggest trying out mobian.

Back camera works.
Connection to a PC using an USB cable is more trickier, though.
If you haven't modified your phone, it won't work. See:

Also check this link. The update channel you are using could make a difference.

That's not entirely true. Connection to a Type A port with the supplied cable (or a similar one like the one supplied with the Pixel) will work - it's how you'd typically use jumpdrive to flash to the eMMC. It's host mode, and maybe connection to other USB C ports, that won't work.

You're right. Jumpdrive certainly works.
As it was implied, that it didn't work, I thought it was meant connecting the PP running one distro to a computer using the supplied USB cable, which in my case does not work given I haven't made any hardware modification.
lsbus does not report any new device having been attached when I connect the PP to my laptop running debian. You can imagine what will happen on other non linux based OS. : )
