Microsoft is ending support for the Windows Subsystem for Android (WSA)
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.

Sxmo: Linux tiling window manager for phones
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].

Can I view Waydroid on a different display on a VNC viewer?
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.

Run Firefox on ChromeOS
> I run Fedora Linux after removing ChromeOS
Same here. Sometimes, it crashes on a measly 4 GB of RAM.
> (the only thing I'm missing is running Android apps)
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.

migration to wayland from x11? for waydroid
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).

Google Update Reveals AI Will Read All Your Private Messages
...will need to be rewritten to avoid Google Play Services.
Not true.
All that needs to happen is for open source developers to "re-implement Google’s proprietary Android user space apps and libraries".

No shit, of course they do.
>In general, we obviously try to minimize the connections to Google, but some services strictly rely on them and would just not work without.
What exactly do you think they should do instead?
