The HN audience can have those phones as daily drivers (some do). I am not suggesting that they are as good as iPhones.

I see your point. There's also postmarketOS; PINE64 PinePhone is listed as one of its primary supported devices[1].

postmarketOS mostly only supports well very old devices, and the Pinephone which is also based on completely outdated hardware. I wish there was something a little more recent with Linux support.

It also supports the Librem 5, but also the Oneplus 6 and 6T

I had a look at OnePlus and checked wikipedia to know which country it comes from, and... wow :

* benchmark results faked by software

* personal data collection

* backdoor

All of these do not appear on the English page so there's a link to the French one : https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/OnePlus#Controverses

Yep..... I'm not endorsing them per se, I'm just saying work is going on to get them to work on pmOS (and Mobian).
