Mobile Linux is here. Love it. Fear it. Sacrifice yourself to it. There is no escape.

My biggest blog post yet, and it’s about running (almost) vanilla NixOS on a (formerly) Android phone! This was 50% fun and 50% exhausting… you solve one issue and another one crops up right away… it was certainly an interesting educational experience.

I’m not explaining any basic technical concepts here, as I’m not a complete noob in phone ROMs and Linux.

Ask me any questions if you have them!

      Okay Ubuntu is bad but it doesn’t have anything to do with Oracle… Did you confuse them with Canonical?

      But yes, this hasn’t been an official Canonical project for a long time… afaik
