I like small details like the fake labels "Enhancement, Compatibility, Cross-platform" at the bottom of the issue to show that they don't take time fill those issues properly.

Is HarmonyOS available somewhere? Can I install it on my laptop and try it out?

If someone thinks the issues are bad, the pullrequests are worse. Everything is duplicated under an "OpenHarmony" directory plus a bunch of useless files.

Any idea what is the intended purpose? I mean, assuming good faith (which is not granted but plausible) how would this help them to build their distro.

They will get visibility. Having a lot of OSS that officially support HarmonyOS make it look more credible alternative.

This is a spammy, astroturfy way of promotion. That I don't like. But I like having options.

Imagine Lockheed doing this on some Chinese programmer ecosystem. "Hey come make our weapons better for us so that they will be more effective when we use it against you."
