I tried Waydroid on Arch and its amazing. It runs Android apps flawlessly. And with a touchscreen device, I feel like I have an Android tablet running inside my Linux machine.

But I still don’t know what to use it for…

What apps do you use with Waydroid? What use cases do you have for it?

    Playing Slay the Spire.

    It does have a native Linux version but it doesn’t sync cross-platform. So since I like playing on the go it is nice to also be able to play at home on a bigger screen.

        Do you have an ARM emulator installed? I don’t think the game ships an x86 build. Other than that it just worked.

          Is that what libhoudini is? I heard of it, but don’t recall if I installed it
