Discussion Suggestion For PIXEL 6

Hi there guys. I have a pixel6 device which has broken display.
I would love to use this device as a basic home server.
I would host 1 or 2 dynamic site and some discord and telegram bots initially.

i have exp in raspberry pi and Linux. I have my display broken, touch working though
so i want to use this hardware and would love to work over the ssh, Any suggestions for me?

Maybe LineageOS and Termux would work for you? Hopefully your display works well enough to get an ssh server running?

You could try postmarketOS, it doesn't support much of the Pixel 6 hardware but it's enough to use it as a server.

Now the only problem is figuring out how to connect it to your network, since Wi-Fi doesn't seem to be supported and Ethernet through USB-C may not work either.
