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?

Interesting. I'll give arch a try when I get a chance for a second data point.

Edit: Okay, wow! This is definitely the route to take if you want a wide range of programs available for installation. I'm trying this out on another android tablet that I have around the house and it looks like I could potentially replicate my desktop setup. With something like this available, I can see why the Termux developers would keep their x11 repository trimmed down.
