Personally I haven’t. While Linux is imperfect, choosing the right distro makes the rest of the experience straightforward. And with it’s whole complexity, I find Linux more user friendly than Windows. Even driver issues, broken shadow file ownership and KDE specifics only made me more confident about my choice to use Linux after I solved everything.
Even with Google’s new restrictions they can’t stop you from installing an app with adb, much less stop you from compiling stuff. The restrictions are on the phone, not the sdk.
