Have you ever been disappointed with Linux? (libretechni.ca)

Personally I haven't. While Linux is imperfect, choosing the right distro makes the rest of the experience straightforward. And with it's whole complexity, I find Linux more user friendly than Windows. Even driver issues, broken shadow file ownership and KDE specifics only made me more confident about my choice to use Linux after I solved everything.

You can use termux and some other thing to run Ubuntu on a Samsung, it's just not built in Iirc Samsung has some Linux thing with dex

Yeah I can, but soon I won't, because Google will block all apps not installed from Play Store, and Termux cannot be compiled for new Android versions because of Android 'security'

It can absolutely be compiled, and you can install it but you either have to use adb or wait 24 hours

I mean, yes it can, but installing any packages won't work. Every binary that you wish to run on Android 10 or higher must be included inside the app, so apt naturally fails, and compiling your code inside Termux will also fail.
