DistroHopper is a home screen replacement for Android that can resemble a number of different Linux desktops, including Ubuntu’s Unity desktop, elementary OS’s Pantheon desktop and the Gnome desktop.
Features include a couple of different themes, a search feature which allows you to search from a multitude of different search sources (both local and remote), and customisation options.
Anti-Features: NonFreeNet(this application promotes/depends a non-Free network service):
⇒ The app connects to Google Play.Tracking(the application tracks and reports your activity to somewhere – usually either without your consent, or by default (i.e. you’d have to actively disable it)):
⇒ The app uses ACRA (crash reporter) with automated reports enabled.
While you can download the APKs here directly, you should preferably use an F-Droid client so the app stays up-to-date on your device. Some clients have this repo enabled by default, e.g. Neo Store, Droid-ify, or, of course, the IzzyOnDroid client by Sunil. With others (like the official client) you'll have to add this repo manually (see the hint on top of the package list for how to do that).
