when a process needs more memory and there is no more memory available, the kernel shuts down the process

Out Of Memory
Seems sensible. This is probably a good place to admit my tendency to swat away all popups - I don't remember doing this, but it is entirely possible it tried to alert me this way.
yeah, this is one of the sore deficiencies of linux and partly why android is preferred in general for low spec devices
i can think of some good reasons why you might think of using android to deploy small scale services and there are little tiny devices you can get, scarcely as big as a computer mouse, that are perfectly adequate and even have NVMe sockets in them and the hard part is just rigging it up to run a native linux thing in the LXC that you can do that with... but you have to respect the memory issue, if you can't have fast swap
