can an average person use a linux phone?

I've been reading some articles about mobile Linux and many of them state one must be an "advanced user" or that the software isn't secure. How true is this?

I already use Linux on my laptop, but I'm not a software developer or anything like that. Would I be able to slap a new OS onto an old Android phone and be on my way, or would I run into problems?

A Murena phone. The de-Googled e//OS system is way simpler than your average Google phone with all the crap on it.
