    Yeah but it will be a Linux VM running within android, being android the primary os monitoring and controlling everything else. I doubt it will be a de-googled android.

    I can easily boot the Linux VM on mine, it’s a google feature. But it’s controlled by google, and they set the limits. AFAIK there’s no easy way to get a desktop output.
