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).

PinePhone does not start anymore after imaging
To confirm the battery status I flashed the charging image from https://github.com/dreemurrs-embedded/Jumpdrive/issues/55. That indeed showed that there was pretty much no charge in the battery. I then took my macbook adapter and charged it for two hours using that, and then the status led started flashing green. Looks like this is solved!

Pinephone OG 3GB RAM Stuck booting Mobian ignoring SD card
I would suggest that you download https://github.com/dreemurrs-embedded/Jumpdrive/releases/download/0.8/pine64-pinephone.img.xz. Then write it to a microSD card using "Balena Etcher" and then insert the microSD card in the top slot and let us know if there is a question or if it changed anything.

Pinephone dead
Please put Jumpdrive on a microSD card and try to boot that. Jumpdrive boots independently from the battery charge. If it boots fine you can let it charge in there for multiple hours and then see if you can boot the phone properly again. https://github.com/dreemurrs-embedded/Jumpdrive

Pine Phone not Booting
That sounds like a corrupted installation, not a drained battery. If you're on the regular PinePhone (not the Pro) I would suggest you to flash JumpDrive on a microSD card, insert that into the phone (top slot) and to boot from that. The image can be found here: https://github.com/dreemurrs-embedded/Jumpdrive/releases/download/0.8/pine64-pinephone.img.xz

Setting up old PinePhone as a daily driver?
At this point if you haven't updated in a long time it's best if you flash a new image to your eMMC because if you pacman -Syu your just gonna bork it like I did when I updated my KDE edition after a year of being sidelined lol. Luckily jumpdrive exists and makes this task as simple as running a dd command.

Flashing the librem5
The last time I had to reinstall my Librem 5 I ended up using JumpDrive and a fresh image from Purism's Jenkins, reusing the instructions from postmarketOS Wiki#Installation).

Pinephone boot from SD / Bricking SD
https://github.com/dreemurrs-embedded/Jumpdrive/releases/tag/0.8 I had a similar situation. After getting a pinephone pro my pinephone OG set idle for several months. I couldn't boot to the eMMc or the sd. I still had jumpdrive on an sd so i tried booting from it. It fixed everything although I don't know how. Now it boots from eMMc or sd just fine. I didn't even plug it into a laptop. After the jumpdrive screen booted I powered it down and removed the jumpdrive for pinephone sd. I fired up the pinephone OG to fix the modem firmware. Flashing the modem went well and the pinephone is ready for use should I need it.
