For an EU-based Linux pick, Jolla seems like a very interesting option on the horizon: https://jolla.com/
Didn't these guys already file for bankruptcy 2 years ago? They already tried and tried again but there's just not enough market for it.
Jolla reached a huge amount of preorders for their new phone. Regarding Linux phones, this looks the most promising and could be a chance. Android forks do not challenge the issue with big tech, enough.
Jolla was effectively out of the phone hardware market for almost a decade. Things have changed dramatically sonce then. Small batch phone maufacturing has become a log more feasible. We will see if it is enough to survive but their SailfishOS has a very much alive community.
The best option on this list that actually runs Linux looks to be the flx1s, which is only $500 and pretty loaded spec-wise. Shout out to @schwim@piefed.zip for actually clicking all the links.
No usbc-alt mode. Meh
No headphone jack? Send it back.
If that's a requirement, I think the Flx1 (no s) has one. You're lucky to find any phone without a headphone jack now, but they do have an option. Still, I'd trade no headphone jack for a Linux phone if that were required.
