Does GrapheneOS support it? I've been using it on a more modern Pixel and I'm very happy with it, but couldn't comment on the Pixel 2XL.

Community about running GNU/Linux on phones. Projects like Ubuntu Touch, Plasma Mobile, PostmarketOS, Mobian etc. Either on former Android phones or hardware like the PinePhone.

Afraid not. So it's running CalyxOS ATM. Otherwise fan of GrapheneOS which I have on another phone. But would like to give Linux a spin on the 2 XL for testing and updates. I hear Manjaro and Ubuntu should be quite OK. Any experience with em?
I used Manjaro and Plasma mobile on my Pinephone and PC. I still used KDE but will not use Manjaro again. I've had PC and phone each fail due to update needing OS reinstall.
I heard Postmarket, Debian and arch good on phones. Phosh is recommended most as the shell.
Thanks for the useful information! I will keep away from Manjaro on mobile, as on PC as I'm not into rolling distros. As for KDE, Postmarket, Debian, Arch and Phosh I will most definitely check them out. Thanks for narrowing down the possibilities.
I understand not wanting rolling distros. I took that position before, but needed OpenSuse Tumbleweed (Leap didn't work with my hardware as needed newer kernel), and I've used for over a year without an issue. It's stunning.
