> Good luck trying to run a proper GNU/Linux on those Android devices.
The Termux App [https://termux.dev/en/] provides a full linux terminal with zsh, emacs, and apt based package manager. I've been using it in lieu of creating full apks for personal projects -- much easier to spin up a database and local webserver via ssh on my phone than to build a proper app package.
I find it fits most of my linux on the go needs; for example I can pull up a node REPL and quickly test code on my phone, or curl a API endpoint
Does that actually use the underlying system or is it just a virtual thing though? It calls itself an emulator after all. Windows can run an emulated Legend of Zelda ROM but that doesn't make it a NES.
