I currently have a PinePhonePro and I'm happy that its the real linux experience in phone form factor, I've tried searching but couldn't find a conclusive awnser.

Is sailfish linux in the sense that i can just change compile target and any linux program will work like on the PPP or is it "linux" in the sense that android is linux?

It's somewhere inbetween. For the most part you have a standard Linux userland. The packaging format for example is just RPM. But the shells compositor can currently only properly display Android and qt apps. There has been some discussion at the last community meeting (where the devs answer questions) about improved Wayland support to change that, but that's where we are.

Furtermore, for drivers and the like some Android blobs are used. There are therefore some Sailfish specific apis that you need to target for some of the functionality.
