Linux on android

Anyone experimenting with Linux on Android around here?

I was having quite a hard time finding a decent IDE to use on DeX so Im just running a full desktop and coding on vscode. The performance is surprisingly good, just wish it was easier and more stable to set up gnome, as it just looks like it would fit a touchscreen and the android aesthetic really well.

It runs pretty well with XFCE on my old Helio P60 phone, very smooth. So it’s not that heavy to run, for light usage at least.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
