If you always wanted to run a tiling window manager on your smartphone, give Sxmo a try.

They just added a nice getting started guide to nicely illustrate how gestures are used to open the menu, bring up and close the keyboard, switch between workspaces and more:

Great work @pocketvj and Sxmo team!

I recently purchased a PinePhone Pro (partly because my pixel 4a's battery life has been severely impacted by the recent update).

Anyone have any advice on what software to install? Any guides to share beyond the PinePhone wiki? I've never used a mobile Linux device. I'm hoping to get NixOS and sxmo working on it at some point ...

An overhead view of an unopened white box with the Pine64 logo and the words "PinePhone Pro" on it. It's resting on a wooden surface.
A PinePhone Pro resting in it's original packaging, with just the box's lid removed. The phone is reflective and black. The phone and box are set on a wooden surface. The edge of some papers that came in the package are just visible, set off to the left of the box.
A PinePhone Pro set on a wooden surface with its back covered popped off and placed on the right. The internals of the phone's back side are visible.

@T_X Also the bet i made 5y ago is won: how disappointing it seemed at first, it is the power of the communities, the cleverness of the free/libre software developpers and users, and the personal work on tweaking and tinkering that made it over time get way better: more performance, adequation to my own needs, battery life even!

I composed an environment based on the free/libre modem "distro" github.com/the-modem-distro/pi, #postmarketOS edge, #sxmo and mostly TUI tools: #tut #aerc #gomuks #links -g

A screenshot of PostmarketOS edge running on a pinephone, with sxmo as an environment, and sway as a window manager. It displays tut (a TUI mastodon client) tiled with links -g displaying the homepage of postmarketOS.

I didn't have much more than that installed on a pinephone running postmarketOS and using #sxmo interface. Getting calls and texts to work (and proper audio routing) was still in development at the time and then the modem in it just quit working. I wanted to get another, but was hoping they would come out with a better device.
