It’s not like Wine at all actually. Waydroid is Android in a container with some software to make it integrate somewhat. Wine is actually a Unix implementation of the Windows APIs. Android translation layer is more like Wine and I have higher hopes for it.

I’m aware, I’m saying if it gets to wine/proton levels of compatibility, it’d be hype

😍there are people working on a android translation layer? This is awesome! Now we only need a supply of phones with hardware that can be used with open source drivers and not having like specs from 5 to 10 years ago…

I mean, if I have linux phone, I want mainline kernel
