Background

A majority of consumer hand-held devices have been designed to run Android or iOS (~consequently, the hardware architecture is generally not an ideal platform for running a Linux distro). For some, these platforms are not ideal since they clash with certain ideologies; which can deem them inadequate or restrictive. There has been various initiatives for creating or branching from these platforms where various communities strive to make (~improvements/overcome flaws).

Some initiatives have achieved installing a Linux distribution on top of the Android kernel.
