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?

Maybe your own adblocker, I thought about doing that myself, I use the public one from adguard on my phone (dns.aguard-dns.com) but having it on your own device would be pretty slick perhaps. But thinking about it more, Google wouldn't just let you use an internal IP for the private DNS. I have tried it with my locally hosted adblocker and it rejects it.
Or you could set up a dashboard like Homepage or Dashy, or Flame or ? Ultimately, your imagination would do! :)
I do it. It has be DOT and you have to have a valid cert.
Unfortunately, from trying this myself, I don't think you can forward port 53 to the Android host, so that won't work (easily). It seems that privileged ports aren't allowed to be forwarded.
I'll have to give this a shot with pi-hole later tonight.
