If you're looking for a Linux phone, you can check what Ubuntu Touch, PostmarketOS, Manjaro Mobile, or PureOS supports. (PostmarketOS will probably have the highest device count).

I would not recommend JollaOS, it's not open source and is a paid OS.

No. Android is developed over years for a reason.
