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.

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’

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
aptnaturally fails, and compiling your code inside Termux will also fail.Isn’t the 24 hour wait a one-time thing anyway? Or did they change that?

This was posted to the Android Developers Blog back in March. It sounds like the Advanced Flow still exists. https://android-developers.googleblog.com/2026/03/android-developer-verification.html
Once you go through all the steps, including a 24 hour wait, it says you’ll have the option to install unverified APKs indefinitely. It’s a bit of a process, but it honestly doesn’t sound too bad.
