I've been daily driving my PinePhone since it arrived and wrote a series of blog
posts documenting my journey, those including:
Setup and first impression:

Running BSD virtual machines with KVM on PinePhone:

Another post on running OpenBSD bare metal will appear soon once I collected
enough data, but for now multiprocessor kernel is already working.
IME related work is currently paused because the keyboard I had fried itself
(apparently the unit I got is defective and a replacement will be shipped to me),
I will focus on other things and continue on this front once the replacement
arrive.
I also got the PineDio USB LoRa adapter working for transmitting and receiving
short messages and have given a demo doing it on Flounder's July meeting:

More work on driver and the userland program will be done to make LoRa more
usable as a communication tool, and there will be more blog posts about that as
it happens.
