With the latest release of android it now supports some Linux functionality. I got docker installed simply by following Docker's docs.

Any thoughts or uses for a mobile homelab? What would be useful to have mobile?

Oh nice! I'd love to run an ad blocker/dns/reverse proxy on something with a little more beef than the Pi zero I've got now.

Jellyfin and or Pi zero does not like streaming through the video.local address I've got setup, so i have to use IP address to get anything without stuttering.

The VM eats through the battery, that's the only hangup I have with this. Otherwise that's a fantastic idea.

If I trusted the battery tech more, I would use an old phone. But I've had one of those white plastic Mac books hooked up to power so long, the battery swelled out of its enclosure :/

Maybe there's a way to disconnect the battery, or an app that switches off charging, so it drains enough to keep that from happening

There are root apps that can limit battery charge level. If you have an older phone that's rootable, I would look into that.
