The March 2025 Android 15 feature drop brought to my Pixel 7 Pro the Linux Terminal app shown here. It's the Android equivalent of the Crostini Linux container of ChromeOS. Right now it's only a terminal with no graphics but Google is working on it.

Thanks to Termux, I've enjoyed having a native Linux terminal on Android for years

@amoroso
Thanks, didn't know that

@ntt It's indeed a relatively obscure and hidden feature.

@shakil_tcs I don't know. But I seem to understand the analogous Linux container of ChromeOS, Crostini, is open source. So the Android one could be too.

@1301a33096a467bcfa823e453bfed240c9bcba89902627ccb605c2bd819dd79f The first thing I'll try when graphics support comes is to run Medley Interlisp.
