I'm mostly interested in Fairphone due to its B Corp, Repairability, Fairphone 5 supports Ubuntu Touch so I assume 6 will eventually be supported and other Linux versions.

All I can find is either clove.co.uk or I find someone in Europe that's willing to ship.

Oh yeah, there are a few Moto models that support LineageOS from what I can tell, I forgot about them! Motorola isn't as common where I live, so it passed my mind. Not all the models support alternative ROMs though, so you need to make sure to check the model name carefully (in my opinion, Motorola's naming scheme is even more all over the place than Sony)

Of the options I mentioned, Sony is the only one out of the three (four if you include FairPhone) that still makes phones with headphone jacks. They also do other neat stuff like having a notchless display and generally having pretty good camera performance (like optical zoom on their 1 series, but now a few other phones have it too, like the Xiaomi Ultra phones)
