I will be installing postmarketOS and Phosh on a OnePlus 6. Aside from things I could find on the wiki, are there any quirks of postmarketOS I should know? And what are some solid Linux mobile apps that you like to use?

Off topic:
I tried to install it on a Pixel 3a yesterday. It said "not enough space" for the OS, I couldn't fine anything about that. So I just installed the bootloader. Now I'm in a loop and don't know how to get back to fastboot-mode. So, don't be stupid like me, I guess.

What commands did you run? It should install to userdata by default which has 64 GB.

Oh no, I tried to flash it to system. ~~I get to some sort of terminal now. How can I get into fastboot and fix it?~~
Nevermind, I fixed it.
