As most of us in this group probably already know, there's Ubuntu Touch, which I've seen on some phones, even being sold on ebay, on Pixel 3As. There's LineageOS & PostmarketOS, but they only run on certain phones, and the setup learning curve is challenging. And finally, seemingly the most popular one, GrapheneOS, only currently works on certain Pixel phones, but there is a partnership with Motorola, so we'll see how that goes. I don't know if any of these except Ubuntu Touch are considered Linux, though.

    Does LineageOS count? It's just Android in its pre-google state.

    PostmarketOS, Mobian, Maemo (RIP) and even Ubuntu Touch are what I'm thinking of when we talk about Linux on Smartphones.

    I must say, I haven't heard of Maemo or Mobian, but I will look into that one. So far the only non Pixel phone I can get anything to work on is maybe a Samsung Galaxy Tab A tablet I have... but it was complicated. I think it was LineageOS.

    If I could get Mobian on my Galaxy A14...
