We already have the OS, what we need is a company that is willing to take a bet on it, support it and convince hardware vendors to provide upstreamed drivers for their stuff.
PostmarketOS may not be perfect as of now, but it would advance and progress so much if people were hired to work on it and if people could buy a smartphone with it preinstalled. Bug reports and corrections would come much quicker as well as supported apps. Right now it is just a confidencial toy OS because of the lack of hardware support really, only a small number of smartphones are supported, only 2 of them are still sold and available as new (pinephone and pinephone pro), their specs are nowhere close to what you would expect for the price and they are only sold through a rather confidential online store.
