Im not an Android expert to be honest (Been fiddling with Linux for some time however, which made my “transition” from 0 to “less-terrible” a rather pleasing one) but I’d say… no. There might be some alternatives to certain Linux-restricted software that might work “out of the box” tho (Like AdGuard instead of pihole) and maybeeeeeee some “voodo magic” can be done with adb (Which is the closest you’ll get of a “Android package manager” of sorts since it allows you to install packages remotely and some tricky things I’m still not aware about.).
Unless you really, REALLY need to tweak the kernel with some turbonerd stuff which is completely off my line of knowledge or some other similar stuff… then I’d say that Android will give you an “acceptable” Linux experience.
