To run these servers on a Linux phone makes file access from phone much easier, and it makes it suitable for mobile use, where there is no cloud available or wanted. Developers wanted to develop a Nextcloud, Jellyfin Media Server, and Minecraft app which can be downloaded from the Ubports app store. If these apps are available, I will buy again a Ubports phone.

How much are you prepared to pay this developer?

I don't fully understand this but how practical is it to run servers on a phone?
If for file access, I'm pretty sure there are more efficient ways to do so. -
Hi @Peter-Gamma
I am a bit dubious as what is your need to have a server on a handheld device.
Servers are used for higher capabilities, it can be higher storage volume, more processing power, large RAM size or large bandwidth...
Using a smartphone or a tablet as a server is not something I would advice, it would be better to keep a mobile device as a client (it will also save battery).From what I could understand of your various messages about SD cards, SMB and now Minecraft ?! It seems you're running all over the place.
Given your previous post, I imagine you want to be able to backup your phone in case anything went wrong. You also want to easily swap device.For the syncing there are already existing apps to fulfill your need either syncthing or nexcloud client (I think there are a couple in the open store)
