• T95 Android TV (Allwinner H616) includes malware right out-of-the-box

  Your question is invalid (and my point proven, sadly) unless you know how to run Linux Deploy on a Chromecast. You were too busy trying to be the smartest guy in the room before thinking to ask what I was actually doing with this thing in the first place. Source: over 1 year ago

• Has anyone got pihole working?

  Yes; I use Linux Deploy on most of my rooted Android devices to set up a chroot environment easily (it's kinda old though, so there may be much better alternatives). I used my old Amazon Fire as a Pi-hole that way. Source: over 1 year ago

• Is there a decent way to develop android apps using dex?

  Proot using andronix/termux/other ways is generally a bad idea and gives very poor performance, beside android sdks don't exist for arm yet, afaik. Even if they do, theres no guarantee you can have it on android for obvious reasons. But if your "getting into development" is learning a new language, you can root your device and get linux deploy(chroot) running and have a more native-like experience (linux). Then...
