Signal + Sailfish OS experience
You can also try out native client (3rd party): https://gitlab.com/whisperfish/whisperfish

Looking for some basic feedback on native signal app
You should join forces with https://gitlab.com/whisperfish/whisperfish/ , they're already much further but currently Sailfish only. It's Rust+QML, too.

GTK and custom themes - what really happened
I suggest to take a look at the architecture of Whisperfish. It uses the qmetaobject crate to write models backing a QML GUI and has some interesting code for getting Tokio and Qt's event loop to work together.

Any news on using the Signal app on the PinePhone?
There's also work being done to bring Whisperfish (a Sailfish OS signal client) over to other distributions, but I don't know what the current state of that effort is.
-
The new updates to Plasma Mobile introduce the first steps towards multiple homescreens, timers for KClock, new podcast and Mastodon apps, and more.
there is work on going for it: https://gitlab.com/whisperfish/whisperfish/-/merge_requests/185

Will Linux Phones stay around this time?
There is work ongoing to write a sailfishos/plasma mobile signal client in rust+qt: https://gitlab.com/whisperfish/whisperfish

- Session manager Anbox

Call of duty mobile
It's definitely possible, you have android virtualization options for linux like QEMU, VirtualBox, Anbox, WayDroid, but most of these are either not great or a bit too advanced for this. Easiest / best bet off the top of my head is dual booting Windows and using BlueStacks
-
I'm looking for a lightweight distro that runs android apps
This isn't really a distro, but you could try Anbox, which wouldn't have the performance overhead of a virtual machine.
-
Is there a way to get the netflix tv app on desktop?
Maybe with Anbox
-
I just want to use Linux :(
If school apps have an android alternative anbox may allow you to use it on your linux desktop... Just a thought!
-
Android tablets and Chromebooks are on another crash course – will it be different this time?
last commit was in september, seems like development has stalled. Let's pretend I said waydroid then.
-
Would you use/try snaps if it has open source backend?
Anbox - Android emulation (although AFAIU they're mostly a dead project now in favor of Waydroid... Although IIRC, Anbox does not require Wayland)
- Anbox not working on Ubuntu 22.10
- Patching x86 Android apps to run on x86 Linux?
- is there a emulator to be able to play old android games on my samsung 20?
