I've used the PinePhone, it was a fun geeky object to have. Most of my issues where related to the screen-size/format which most apps don't handle well. Yes, apt/yay install does work... but you end up struggling to use it.
PostmarketOS with sxmo was the most usable.
Compared to GrapheneOS or /e/os, it's day and night. You can't compare apples and VHS tapes.
And to reply to your actual question.
GrapheneOS works perfectly fine for a daily driver.
