Only thing I know of is the lead dev has a mastodon account (dansup) where he's pretty active

Loops is new and still in beta. The dev has said that he wants to wait to open source it until he feels it's current state is ready to be on other people's servers (once it reaches 1.0). I can't say I agree with the thought process but at least with pixelfed he did the same process and actually followed through on federation and open sourcing

Organic maps is the goat, looking forward to their linux build becoming more stable

There are apps made for linux that don't work with android, and there are apps made for android that don't work with linux. That's enough for me to consider them different

I don't daily drive one but I've been keeping a close eye on it and here's my opinions: postmarketos seems to have the most momentum out of any distro (you can see device support here). I do believe it will be viable eventually as a lot of work is actively being done. This month they announced two grants that were accepted for 4g volte calling and firefox on mobile improvements. They are also working on porting systemd to alpine so that gnome mobile and plasma mobile can be run without any workarounds. Also the oneplus6/6t seems to be the most hopeful for a daily driver.

tldr: I don't think it's currently viable but work and money is currently being put towards projects to fix that

A decentralized marketplace would honestly be pretty sick as long as they can figure out how to ensure people don't't get scammed

As a current user of ranger could this be a full replacement?

I plan on using proton until I hate myself enough to run my own email server

Wouldn't need bitwarden if they're using keepassxc

While it is ironic, the pixels are easy to unlock the bootloader and have good support across lineage, calyx, and graphene. Been using one to degoogle for awhile and would recommend them
