Lindroid is an Android app that lets you run Linux in a container, with support for hardware-acceleration - Liliputing - eviltoast

Very interesting news. I haven’t tried it out personally; But if it works, I imagine that’d be huge.

    This interests me greatly. I would like to try this on a device, but I don’t have an extra I can spare to do so.

      Put it on your phone. It runs inside a container, so on top of stock android. All your normal phone stuff is still there and running. Worth noting android has good support for mouse and keyboard.

      Edit: user below pointed out that this does not appear to be an app, which kinda makes it a weird choice? Seems like there are still better solutions like Userland, Andronix, and LinuxDeploy

      I bought a OnePlus 6 rn, apparently one of the devices where you can put Debian on it.
