Does android count?

SailfishX is a usable daily driver with decent Android app support.

BUT: you’ll have to be okay with dealing with random annoyances like:

-> Your default weather app lost the ability to get weather data.

-> Some Xperia 10 III devices lose audio after some time when using GPS. Unless you are in Finland, then you are fine. Nobody knows why.

I’m surprised nobody mentioned Droidian yet. It’s the best of both worlds: You get a Linux phone with Phosh and an actual camera + sensors working due to the Android kernel. Check it out here: https://droidian.org/

It supports Waydroid out of the box, allowing you to run Android apps such as Whatsapp, Bitwarden and even Google Playstore, etc.

The new Firefox is miles away from what PostmarketOS offers. The only downside is you need a supported device, as per https://devices.droidian.org/.

So yes, I do drive Droidian daily, but I have an Android phone nearby just in case I need something specific.

The biggest hurdle is getting a phone that you even can install a custom ROM or different OS. 'mericans and yuropeans can get their pixels, pinephones and similars easily, other places cannot.
