For real, people should put disclaimers when recommending software like this. “I really like their vision, but installer beware! It is not ready for noobs! Also calling and texting just doesn’t work! Lol good luck!”
Lineage and Graphene are based on android and bear the danger of support loss when google drops support.
PostmarketOS is actual Linux (alpine is the base to be exact).
Graphene definitely is a lot more advanced since it uses all the proprietary blobs of android. There is no use in comparing the two. Its like comparing lemmy and reddit in terms of technical finesse.
It works very well for some apps already but it is highly dependent on people supporting either financially or through contributions (code, issues, translations, documentation, tutorials).
How does this compare to lineageOS or GrapheneOS?
LineageOS is very stable and usable as a daily driver, meanwhile PMOS struggles to deliver basic functionalities like calling and sending SMS.
LineageOS has a bigger community and supports more mainstream devices, where PMOS primarily focus on PINE64 and Purism.
Wow that sounds like so much fun.

I think you missed the detail that lineageOS and grapheneOS are based on AOSP and PMOS is based on mainline Linux.
