As far as I can tell Ubuntu Touch, Sailfish and postmarketOS are all daily driver ready.

They are "daily driver ready" in the "Desktop Linux in 2007" sense. You need to know a lot about Linux to daily drive it.

Sure, it's not for everyone, and software support leaves a lot to be wanted.

It's funny though - I've been using Linux since late 2007, and I have never been a technical user. Best I can do is copy paste things I don't understand into the terminal if absolutely necessary. It always just worked for me. :)
