It's definitely possible, you have android virtualization options for linux like QEMU, VirtualBox, Anbox, WayDroid, but most of these are either not great or a bit too advanced for this. Easiest / best bet off the top of my head is dual booting Windows and using BlueStacks

I'm looking for a lightweight distro that runs android apps
This isn't really a distro, but you could try Anbox, which wouldn't have the performance overhead of a virtual machine.

Is there a way to get the netflix tv app on desktop?
Maybe with Anbox

I just want to use Linux :(
If school apps have an android alternative anbox may allow you to use it on your linux desktop... Just a thought!

Android tablets and Chromebooks are on another crash course – will it be different this time?
last commit was in september, seems like development has stalled. Let's pretend I said waydroid then.

Would you use/try snaps if it has open source backend?
Anbox - Android emulation (although AFAIU they're mostly a dead project now in favor of Waydroid... Although IIRC, Anbox does not require Wayland)
- Anbox not working on Ubuntu 22.10
- Patching x86 Android apps to run on x86 Linux?
- is there a emulator to be able to play old android games on my samsung 20?

Update of leagueoflegends-git script and the AUR package for transitioning to 64-bit wine
Things may not be as easy on Ubuntu since there doesn't seem to be a packaged wine-lol that's ready to install. If one's going to install wine-lol manually, they'd need to understand and follow the commands of either the wine-lol pkgbuild or the wine-lol-bin pkgbuild, at which point I'd argue getting an Arch-based user-friendly distro might be easier for non-tech-savvy users. Unfortunately I don't have an Ubuntu machine to work on that or test it myself.

Short game freeze ( 2-3 seconds ) + Huge performance hit [Patch 12.12] [wine-lol] [Ubuntu 22.04LTS]
I guess it would be wise to open an issue on https://github.com/M-Reimer/wine-lol/issues ...

[EndeavourOS] League of Legends won't launch anymore.
It's even better to build wine-lol with the Slow start fix patch, the client will start up in a few seconds.

Getting X Error when running League on the Steamdeck
I self compiled wine-lol, with a few deck spefic changes to the file path, since I don't want to disable the read-only FS (yet). I also got the other wine dependencies and preloaded them with LD_LIBRARY Path and with this I got into the Client.
