> I would love to have a fully-functional phone running GNU/Linux that I can use as a phone and carry around in my pocket and then plug in a keyboard, mouse, and monitor and have a "good enough" computer for basic office and programming capabilities.

As much as I like the idea of 100% FOSS in my pocket, it's simply not practical because I need to use Android apps to hail rides and contact friends who often use only closed-source messenger apps.

If you're in the same boat, a very realistic alternative would be to just carry around a Raspberry Pi.

That is currently where I am as well.

Termux has been a wonderful way to get simple programming tasks done on the go because I can just plug in an external keyboard, mouse, and monitor and have a command line, text editors, compilers, etc.

I am concerned about how Android 10's limitations will impact Termux since I would hate to lose such a useful tool.

Seeing what GNU/Linux phones are out there at least provides some other options about where I might want to go next once my current phone ages out.
