Selfhosted
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.
Rules:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.

First things first: you may be misunderstanding how phones run Linux. A stock Debian install certainly will not work for a number of reasons, but mainly drivers. Storage is second. Phones are flashed with specific images created to work with the storage in each specific phone.
Second: you'd need to make sure the bootloader on your phone is unlocked and able to be used for such a thing. Quick search shows that Ubuntu Touch did work on it at some point, but was deprecated long ago.
Third: if you just want practice, you can probably find packages to install on the phone that will run an HTTP server. That might be a simpler path.
I'm not saying don't try, but you'd be starting from scratch, and if you aren't familiar with these things already, I'm not sure this is a forum to get enough help on the VERY involved process of bootstrapping just a basic running kernel on your phone model. It probably can be done, but you'd be doing it from scratch it seems.
if they got lineageos on the device it's already unlocked right?
anyway it seems supported decently enough by postmarketos, which is currently the best distro (imo) for Linux mobile
their site has install instructions (on the OnePlus 5 page that is linked)
anyway I wouldn't use docker or anything, using nginx on bare metal to host a website is easy and extremely lightweight
