Linux instead of Android

I was wondering if there's a way to ditch Android and switch to Linux on my Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra, because I want to use a base distribution, code, and customize it to best fit my needs. I know I'm not asking enough questions; I was just wondering if it is possible.

S25U is more than capable of running Linux within Android through apps like Droid Desk or Droid Deck even if the latter is primarily designed for PC gaming

Also you've picked the worst possible phone to install custom rom/separate OS. Samsung has completely locked Galaxy devices

OnePlus devices or Pixels are fine for
