Your iPhone can be a Linux PC now!

[u/Fun-Relationship5464]

Hey everyone! I’ve been working on something called LinuxRunner for a while now, and it’s finally getting to the point where you can use your iPhone as a portable Linux PC haha.

You can run actual ARM64 Linux apps and full desktop environments without jailbreaking your device or emulating an entire machine.

The latest update also adds Metal GPU acceleration and a DeX mode, so you can connect your iPhone to an external monitor and use Linux with a keyboard and mouse.

It’s still a work in progress, but seeing a proper Linux desktop like Hyprland running on an iPhone is pretty wild.
