I mainly use my phone for messaging (ie. Signal, Whatsapp etc), web browsing/social media (forums, lemmy, bluesky etc), and video viewing (jellyfin, alt youtube frontends, and netflix)

Are all these things possible on a linux phone like a Pinephone?

I would not suggest the pinephone as reviewers have stated it has slow performance.

You should check out the compatibility levels with the distros such as Postmarket OS, Ubuntu Touch and Mobian on their documentations before buying an used phone.
