You can flash your own mobile linux os to it. I know a guy who did. But he was very knowledgeable about that stuff. And so privacy focused he wouldn't even show it off ๐ญ
I haven't checked for the Pixel for now, but for every older phone (usually OnePlus') there was always something missing - only the OP One was well supported, which speaks for this company's decisions...
I doubt he put actual Linux. There is no Linux distros for pixel phones above the 4a. You can put termux on your phone but that's really not the same thing. Trust me I've been looking lol
