Very interesting news. I haven’t tried it out personally; But if it works, I imagine that’d be huge.
Interesting, I think I’ll try it in waydroid
So you’re going to emulate Linux in an Android emulator on Linux?
No, I’m using waydroid in wsl
So it’s windows emulating linux emulating android emulating linux?
I’m interested to hear how that works out for you
This interests me greatly. I would like to try this on a device, but I don’t have an extra I can spare to do so.
Put it on your phone. It runs inside a container, so on top of stock android. All your normal phone stuff is still there and running. Worth noting android has good support for mouse and keyboard.
Edit: user below pointed out that this does not appear to be an app, which kinda makes it a weird choice? Seems like there are still better solutions like Userland, Andronix, and LinuxDeploy

In this specific github entry it mentions flashing, and with my setup, I would prefer not to flash something onto my phone without some sort of backup.
Unless there is a userland app I can install that I seem to be missing.
Yeah, I seem to have believed the title of the article before reading the article for some reason. My bad.
This pretty much opens the door for Proton on mobile I guess?
