@neil looking at the support pages, looks like my old-old-old phone is supported!

https://wiki.postmarketos.org/wiki/Google_Nexus_5_(lg-hammerhead)

How "linuxy" is it though? I was thinking of turning it into a server of some kind. Does it use apt? Can it run Docker or k8s?

Completely!

It is based on Alpine, and so uses apk rather than apt for package management.

It looks like I will need to debug an issue with the keyring not unlocking with the user, but that is one for later.
