Alpine-term: x86_64 under QEMU with termux on Android
github.comThis project runs a full-blown qemu-based VM on Android running alpine Linux. Written by one of the maintainers of termux, and genuinely useful having "real" (not proot) Linux on my phone
Performance is surprisingly ok too - I'm using it on a OnePlus 8 Pro, and happily running my erlang development environment in it. Docker works too, albeit with a slight performance penalty
Thanks, sounds interesting. Surprising to hear the performance is ok. I wonder if using the arm version of alpine wouldn't be more efficient.
I love alpine, I use it on all my servers since Ubuntu went overboard with the snap thing. Alpine is light and simple just the way I like it.
Ps by using arm I mean still virtualizing it of course, not running on the Android kernel which is what termux already does very well
