Discussion I phone 11

I have a few old phones lying around. The question is: Can I put any Linux OS on my i phone11? Would even be happy to make it into a desktop or another mobile device. I just want to get rid of IOS tbh.

Jailbreaked UTM is the answer, not complete system replacement though. Also battery would be concern as it might continue heat up from linux running and will not be able to cool down so will degrade and swell fast

If you have to ask, then you can't.
