redroid-doc VS waydroid

I've been trying to install ReDroid following this guide (replacing docker with podman) but the container gives only the following output:

Hmm, again

The building insturction is here. You have to manually build a ReDroid image with Gapps...It took me 7 hours and thank god now Gapps is working.

I would say redroid is better. docker-android seems to be something geared towards developers.

Might want to check out ReDroid

Any Linux distro + Android in a container solution(Example)(recommended)

don't test me in vice versa

And even better Android is a Linux too, and can run inside containers(*like separate operating systems from the same families sharing the same kernel) in every Linux distros you could find, for example Chrome OS' Android container, Anbox, Waydroid, Redroid benefits from that.

4- Android is a Linux distribution, basically same kernel can run both GNU userland of Chrome OS and Bionic Libc/ART userland of Android, without needing much resources, this is called containerization. It is nothing new, any regular GNU/Linux distro can run Android containers, Redroid for example.

Android on the desktop works very well on Wayland with Waydroid and it even supports Google Play store. https://waydro.id/

Great running apps not available on Linux with a touchscreen PC. It only seems to run Android apps compiled for x86, but it is very fast.

There are practical use cases, and it is very usable. I haven’t tried it on WSL2, but it seems like a practical approach without reliance on Microsoft.

There's a piece of software called Waydroid[1] that allows you to run Android applications on GNU/Linux platforms - including the PinePhone. Sxmo, despite its name, can run Wayland instead of X and therefore supports Waydroid.

Personally, I haven't managed to get Waydroid to work, a task hindered due to some massive initial downloads which are required to set it up. However, I haven't tried particular hard, and there are videos online by those more successful than me[2].

I thought it was uncharacteristic of to see a service like this offered by a large tech company, and wanted to share.

Check out the Waydroid application.

I have setup an Arch linux server on my old pc. i mainly use it for plex, transmission, docker etc and it works pretty well! I wanted to install Waydroid https://waydro.id/ on that server. Is there a way that I can view waydroid using a VNC viewer on my laptop on the same network? is it possible or would I have to install a GUI like xfce before installing waydroid to view the same on tigervnc or some other VNC viewer? Thanks & regards.

Same here. Sometimes, it crashes on a measly 4 GB of RAM.

I would recommend using Waydroid[1]. It runs fairly well in my use case, and runs LineageOS on top of it with the full LineageOS GUI.

i am using KDE Neon (user edition) on two machines (thinkpad laptops with intel). On mentioned machines i would like to try and use waydroid: https://waydro.id/ Waydroid required wayland as display server (it will probably not work on x11).

Check (Waydroid)[https://waydro.id/]

Waydroid is rebuilding the original idea behind Anbox with explicit focus on modern Wayland powered desktop environments.
