Poll: What is your favorite distro/interface for the PinePhone?

[ryo]

... Purism is paying for its development and Phosh was designed to be a thin overlay on top of GTK/GNOME ... they are all working to break out of their silos, but Phosh was designed from the beginning for close compatibility with an existing desktop stack.

I should say that SXMO is like Phosh in that regard, minus the corporate support that is.
They simply took DWM (which is already distro independent), optimized the interface to be more suitable for smartphones, and that's it.
Phosh is basically an alternative Gnome shell, which is functionality that has been around since Gnome 3, and I guess so far barely anyone made use of it other than the Gnome developers themselves and Canonical.

Don't get me started at separating something that used to be glued together, as a developer I know very well how much of a disaster this is.
Best is to just develop in components from day 1, so you don't need to deal with having to remove the glue later on.
