    Isn’t Valve working on a compatibility layer for running Android apps on linux? Also there is Waydroid which runs Android apps in containers at pretty decent speed.

      I see. Valve’s Android virtualisation is called “Lepton” and it’s a fork of Waydroid.

      I wonder where they’re going with this. I know Valve is a game platform. From that I suspect that they will use Lepton to bypass the Google Play ecosystem and have their own Android Lepton Play store.

      But wouldn’t it just be Android games on Linux, and not other apps?
