looking like a bike which is very right here on this forum. China almost all the way.
For what kind of comments are you looking?
Do you want to hear if you have chosen the cheapest components or if you are having mistakes when it comes to price estimations?

For now, I'd change the crank to Fovno Phantom, as I don't know the one you listed

Mainly looking for advice on mistakes I might be making, parts that might not fit, or bad experiences with parts.

This one?

Any advice for good bottom brackets? This is the first thing I found for PF30 -> 24mm:

Or would you recommend using a PF30 -> BSA68 adapter and then using a screw-in bottom bracket?

I would go with this crank/ring/BB combo: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005001512954173.html
Choosing the PF30 BB, the bearings may not resist a lot, but can be replaced easily.
Or replaced with a thread together version like the ZTTO: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/4000288664815.html

And would avoid the PF-to-thread adapters as you add an interface, with potential issues.
The thread together BBs are very stiff and stable.

I'm happy with my LTwoo AX12, but I also don't have comparison to any MTB groupset from Sram or Shimano.  :D
