    Like ability to install different desktop enviroment?

    Technically, with root access, yeah. It’s just that Android’s UI isn’t a DE/WM in the desktop Linux sense

    Almost all apps store settings in easy to backup .config folder.

    And same for Android app data with root access. /data contains, well, data of apps and the general system. Sure, it’s not the same as on desktop Linux, but it’s still possible to modify, copy, delete with root access. Every app is a different Linux user on Android, and that’s also just different from desktop Linux.

    To me, you’re just pointing out differences due to the software architecture of both OSes.

        You think compiling a binary with a different toolchain and system paths is the same as exploiting a made up security vulnerability linked to a game for some reason. I’m done wasting my time here. /system/bin/uname -s prints Linux, that’s enough.
