I’m currently messing around with Termux and trying to install Linux through AnLinux, Andronix and UserLAnd just for fun.

I have mixed success in AnLinux. I successfully installed and started Lubuntu but it was running pretty slowly. I wasn’t able to replicate the install a while later. Also I totally failed to get ArchLinux running.

Now I’m trying Andronix. Wish me luck!

Do you have any experience running a Linux on your mobile?

        It’s PinePhone Pro. Camera works badly, but at the time of purchase, it did not work, so we are slowly getting there. Banking apps work through Waydroid.

        It’s not practical to use GNU/Linux on the phone, but fun 🙂

        The battery life is awful. But I bought the official clamshell keyboard for it that replaces the back cover and expands the battery capacity. With this accessory the battery life is good.
