OK. This is cool.

You like terminal access?
Try Termux
Very useful for mobile SSH
Graphene also has a built in Linux VM. You need to enable it in developer settings, but it gives you a full Debian install to play with. It's a bit beta compared to termux though.
Termux is one of the first things I installed. 😎
I've had zero success with Android/Graphene Linux VM. Crashes after download/install every time. Love the idea of if.
Awesome, termux is an essential Android app 👍
Yeah, the VM is a WIP 💯
What do you use Termux for? I use the terminal constantly in my computer, but using it on my phone seems painful.
Remote server access from anywhere is a huge one. Saves me from dragging a laptop everywhere just in case I need to troubleshoot something.
You can also assign scripts to launcher icons, and there is a widget too, which eases the pain of working from a mobile keyboard. Just click a button to run commands.

My phone also has usb-c video out, so it's even better when I'm hooked up to a larger display + keyboard and mouse. Pocket terminal ftw, and I didn't have to spend money on some raspberry pi cyberdeck that I'd never carry anyway.
